OCZ Technology is proud to officially extend the warranty of all its Solid State Drives to three years, from its top performing Vertex EX to the value-oriented Solid 2 Series. OCZ previously extended this warranty only for the premium top-end offerings originally specified two year period.
After extended performance in the field and extensive testing, OCZ determined that it is able to support a longer warranty with the intention of adding value and increased peace of mind to customers looking to take advantage of all the benefits of flash based storage, including improved battery life, greater durability, shorter boot ups, and overall snappier performance in desktops, notebooks, and netbooks. Though the drives and their hardware are unchanged, the longer warranty reflects the confidence in their performance and durability, especially due to the exceptional advances in controller technology and firmware.
