Toshiba Introduces the TLC-based OCZ Trion 150 Solid-State Drives
Toshiba is releasing the new Trion 150 SSD series, an affordable performance upgrade for mainstream notebooks and desktops. Built with the Toshiba’s 15nm Triple-Level Cell (TLC) NAND flash technology from Toshiba, the Trion 150 series has been designed to replace the previous Trion 100 SSd series, offering a balance of reliability, endurance and value.
Rated for sequential read speeds up to 550MB/s, sequential write speeds up to 530MB/s and random write I/O performance up to 91,000 IOPS, the Trion 150 series help improve boot time and optimize storage operations.
The Trion 150 will be available in capacities of 120GB, 240GB, 480GB, and 960GB. Additionally, Trion 150 SSDs provide increased endurance with up to 240TB total bytes written (TBW).
In the unlikely event that a drive needs to be replaced, Trion 150 is protected by OCZ’s ShieldPlus Warranty for 3 years.
