My OCZ Vertex 4 was two firmware updates behind. I had to do it in five steps, (1) do a complete backup to a separate hard drive using Acronis as the firmware wipes out any data. (2) Update from 1.3 to 1.4 and then power down the PC and restart (power cycle the SSD as OCZ calls it), (3) do the update from 1.4 to 1.5 and power down the PC and restart again. (5) restore the drive (Win 8) from the Acronis backup. | My System Specs |

Tom's Hardware's SSD Hierarchy Chart : Best SSDs For The Money: December 2012 Quote: In order to simplify the landscape, we're going to omit brand names for those vendors leveraging SandForce. There are simply too many to list. At a given capacity, performance breaks down based on memory type, and this is their order of performance, from highest to lowest.
We're making an exception with Intel's SSD 330 because it's special case of a SandForce-based SSD that runs with reduced performance specs.
