Review / Snapshots:

“Among the SSDs of OCZ there is one very interesting series of products – Octane, built on a unique Indilinx Everest controller. We haven’t yet reviewed drives like that therefore it was particularly interesting to see if Octane would become a worthy competitor to popular SSDs on SandForce and Marvell controllers. Especially since OCZ has recently released a new firmware update for their Octane series, which significantly improves their performance.”

“Besides the controller and flash memory, firmware is a highly important component of each SSD. Firmware algorithms can affect performance as well as stability of an SSD and we know a number of examples when firmware enhancements helped substantially improve SSDs that had been released long before. We can also recall examples when firmware flaws led to malfunctioning, data loss or even an untimely death of an SSD.”

“Fortunately, the Octane came out stable and reliable, so the developers could focus on optimizing firmware for performance instead of finding and eliminating bugs. Based on an ARM processor, the Indilinx Everest controller is flexible and allows changing even its basic operation principles through firmware.”

“The Octane could be viewed as optimized for large amounts of sequentially placed data (this could come in handy in video editing applications, for example) but now it has become more versatile.”

“The emphasis on high storage capacity means that OCZ positions it as a full HDD replacement in a desktop PC, as a single disk that is used for storing user data among other things. In this scenario, the Octane can indeed make sense as it delivers a good performance at sequential writing.”

“OCZ seems to be going to give up SandForce-based products in favor of controllers from its own subsidiary Indilinx. The Octane is the first try, and a very good one at that. The new SSD has up-to-date specs and good performance. Most importantly, the Octane came out stable, reliable and problem-free. Now that OCZ has successfully debuted in the premier league of SSD makers who develop their own controllers, we are looking forward to the next generation of the company’s products based on improved Indilinx Everest 2 controllers. As far as we know, they are going to come about as soon as this summer.”
