Download Firmware OCZ Vertex 3, Vertex 3 Max IOPS, Agility 3, Solid 3, RevoDrive 3 2.50

OCZ Technology has released new firmware for the Vertex 3, Vertex 3 Max IOPS, Agility 3 and Solid 3 series solid state drives. Officially, updating the firmware is only possible if the drive is not the Windows system disk, but there is an OCZ form little tool available where it is possible. For user experiences with these and other SSDs you can visit our own GoT forum, where the large SSD topic is now working on part 9. The changelog reports the following changes and improvements:

• Improved unsafe shutdown recovery error handling
• Improved power state transitions from PS6 to PS1
