Ocz Vertex 3 Firmware
Hi guys,
just jumped on the SSD bandwagon, and have a question. I bought a 2.5' Vertex 2 60GB, which seems to be doing very well in all the benchmarks. I know OSX has no TRIMM support yet, and there is a lot of rumbling about using the right firmware in order to increase the SSD's lifespan. I read I'll probably have to use Windows in order to update the firmware in OCZ SSD's.
Can anyone tell me, how I can check the firmware version of the SSD using OSX ? Can it be done, or do you need Windows for this as well ?? I have no idea what firmware it runs, so there is no way to know if it needs updating.
Moreover, which firmware version do you guys use on the Vertex 2 in Mac OSX ? Are there any advantages you noticed ? Is there no other way than to use Windows for updating ??
Thanks in advance

I know this is an extremely long video but think of it more like a video blog than a tutorial. I would say that this video addresses three different issues all in one video. Thanks for watching. As with most SSD vendors, OCZ regularly updates SSD firmware across their SSD product lines. The company offers a one-stop firmware shop for all of their products, including SSDs like the Vector, Vertex 450, RevoDrive 3 X2, Octane, Agility 3, and RevoDrive Hybrid. Most firmware updates are relatively minor, but occasionally OCZ will release firmware that produces a significant impact on an SSD.
