by Ryan Smith on September 29, 2016 3:30 PM ESTIt’s been a while since we’ve last had a hardware giveaway, so for those of you looking for some new hardware, you’re in luck. As part of the recent launch of our updated forums, the forum community team will be holding an Ask The Experts-styled Q&A session with OCZ, and along with that will be giving away a few OCZ SSDs. The prizes include the 512GB and 1TB versions of the recently launched OCZ VX500 SATA SSD, and a 512GB OCZ RD400 NVMe M.2 SSD.
The giveaway itself is open now, and will be running through October 14th on our forums. Meanwhile, the community team is soliciting questions for the Q&A, so please be sure to submit any questions you have. You can find the full details for submitting questions, along with entry instructions for the giveaway itself, over on the storage section of our forums.

Nice promo! I haven't had an OCZ drive in a while (OCZ Vertex 2). Speed of the Toshiba OCZ NVME SSD looks great, though. Thinking of buying the 256GB one if I don't win for my primary boot/OS drive.LauRoman - Thursday, September 29, 2016 - link
To be clear, not available outside the 50 states of the US.baka_toroi - Thursday, September 29, 2016 - link

I can't believe the comeback OCZ has made under Toshiba.The ARC100 was one of the best SSD's of 2014, I installed over 20 for a law firm and every single one has been reliable. The software\toolbox is excellent as is the firmware support.
I've been having similar luck with the bargain basement Trion 150, which even AT says is the highest performing planar TLC SSD they've tested.
Can't wait for a new performance controller. I wish Toshiba would put that Indilinx IP to use.

I am still running 240GB Vertex 3... and I definitely wasn't saving it in any way. Fingers crossed it will endure long enough for painless upgrade to an M.2 storage.Ariknowsbest - Monday, October 3, 2016 - link
The ARC100 was my first ssd and it has been great. And bought different brands afterwards to see how they stack up. Was close to get the on Friday Trion 150, but the Toshiba Q300 (15nm) was significantly cheaper so I got that one.Chaitanya - Friday, September 30, 2016 - link
