Toshiba OCZ VX500 512 GB Review
Test Setup »Packaging and Contents
The Drive
The drive conforms to the dimensions set forth by the 2.5" form factor. It is made of metal to improve its durability and is only 7 mm thick, which makes it compatible with Intel's Ultrabook specification.
Like most recent SSDs, the OCZ VX500 uses the SATA 6 Gbps interface. It is compatible with any older SATA standard, but will, in such a case, work at reduced performance.
You will find the SSD controller and eight flash chips on the PCB.
OCZ uses a Toshiba TC358790 controller.
The eight MLC flash chips, produced by Toshiba, are built on a 15 nanometer process.
