OCZ Vertex Turbo 30 GB

This is a 30GB 2.5" SSD on the SATA interface. Sequential throughput reaches 550 MB/s reads and 520 MB/s writes. At roughly $4.92 per gigabyte it sits in the high-end tier. SATA throughput caps near 550 MB/s — fine for game libraries and backups, slower for heavy scratch work.

Expect to pay around $147.64, which lands it among high-end options. PlanMyPC's builder flags compatibility problems automatically and tracks the latest drive deals from multiple stores.
