The Trion 150 comes in a small, blue box. While there isn't a lot of information on the front, the back of the box advertises many of the drive's key features including its SATA 6Gbps interface, 2.5" ultra-slim form factor, Toshiba TLC NAND flash memory and 3-year ShieldPlus warranty.
OCZ doesn't include a lot of extras with the Trion 150. Along with the SSD, the box contains a small drive installation manual with instructions for both desktop and notebook computers as well as a sheet of paper with information on how to reach OCZ's tech support.
Physical Features:
The construction of the Trion 150 is very similar to that of the Trion 100. The outer casing is made out of a lightweight metal alloy and is covered by a great looking silver finish. The top of the drive also has a large, white, blue and gray sticker showing that it is part of OCZ's Trion 150 series.
Like the Trion 100, the Trion 150 uses Toshiba's TC58 (TC58NC1000GSB-00) controller chip. Toshiba still hasn't released any information regarding this controller. However, considering its size and the way it is positioned on the PCB, the TC58 has more than a passing resemblance to the Phison PS3110.
For the Trion 150, OCZ opted to use Toshiba's 15nm Triple-Level Cell (TLC) NAND flash modules. Looking at the pictures above, you can see that there are eight 32GB NAND flash packages on either side of the PCB. The drive also has a single 512MB Micron DDR3L SDRAM memory chip that is used for caching and garbage collection.
