OCZ Technology to Showcase Cutting-Edge Solid State Drives and Other New Products at CES 2010

OCZ I think has the largest selection of SSD drives of any company…

OCZ Technology Group, Inc. (http://ocztechnology.com), a worldwide leader in innovative, ultra-high performance and high-reliability memory and flash-based storage as an alternative to hard disk drives, plans to unveil an array of next-generation solid state drives (SSDs) along with other premium hardware at the 2010 International Consumer Electronics Show to be held January 7-10, 2010, in Las Vegas, Nevada. With its finger on the pulse of emerging and booming markets, OCZ’s impending line of SSDs is designed to optimize entire businesses as well as the computing experiences of everyday consumers.

“For this year’s Consumer Electronics Show, OCZ continues to build on its lineup of SSD solutions designed for enterprise-class applications”

“For this year’s Consumer Electronics Show, OCZ continues to build on its lineup of SSD solutions designed for enterprise-class applications,” commented Ryan Petersen, CEO of OCZ Technology Group. “We are uniquely positioned as the leading developer of SSDs, which we believe will ultimately replace traditional hard drives. In addition to our robust lineup of 2.5-inch solid state drives, we will be launching new drives at CES with interfaces that include SAS and PCI-E. These interfaces make it easier than ever for enterprise clients to replace expensive-to-maintain, traditional storage media with a higher-performing and more reliable solution.”

OCZ’s storage products not only continue to revolutionize performance, durability and power efficiency compared to traditional hard drives, but also address a wide range of applications ranging from enterprise-class data management to personal notebooks. By continuously enhancing the technology and broadening partnerships, OCZ is on a path to make SSDs the superior choice over HDDs for OEM clients, business storage infrastructures, and the average end-user—all of whom place a premium on performance, low power consumption, and total cost of ownership (TCO).

OCZ PRODUCTS TO BE UNVEILED AT CES INCLUDE:

• SATA II 2.5" SSDs: OCZ has paved the way for consumer solid state drives, addressing the demand for performance and affordability. As OCZ’s next SSD generation, the Vertex 2 Series pushes the envelope even further and provides a truly viable MLC-based enterprise storage option. The Vertex 2 line features an innovative, higher-performing architecture designed to serve the needs of the entire range of computing environments.
