That doesn't sound like a lot at first glance, but most client users won't approach that on a regular basis for what will presumably be a boot drive. Over the course of the three-year warranty OCZ says you can write 20GB per day. The nascent rise of M.2 and even mSATA would increase the scope of the Arc 100 by a substantial degree.Дrive longevity is measured in the total number of writes per day.

It's a shame that the only form factor available is the standard 2.5in, 7mm common for SATA drives in larger laptops and PCs. The controller has baked-in support for 256-bit AES encryption but there's no mention of TCG Opal or IEEE compliance meaning no support for Microsoft's eDrive - useful for businesses but not so relevant for the cost-conscious user.

The budget origins also reveal themselves through a lack of power-loss protection on the hardware side and no accompanying cloning software in the package.

Part of the reason is that OCZ clocks the controller in at a lower speed than on, say, the Vertex 460, presumably for cost reasons. Sequential speeds are reasonable for the capacities, as are the random IOPS, though not as good as some of the newer competition. The eight-channel M10, also found on the Vertex 460A, is paired with Toshiba's common A19 MLC NAND. It's no surprise to see the in-house dual-core Barefoot 3 controller powering the trio of Arc 100 drives.
