Continuing with its PCIe SSD development, OCZ is now showing Z-Drive p88. Sans the mind-boggling speed, it also brings one key feature to the market: NAND Flash redundancy & upgradeability.

From the start of the project, Z-Drive was something like a skunkworks project inside OCZ Technology which converted into something more real.

The current model Z-Drive p88 is utilizing PCIe x8 and SO-DIMM sockets for Flash module for easier upgrades and manageability.

If one of the Flash modules goes bad, it can be replaced.

The Z-Drive p88 had four Indilinx controllers and delivers a great 1.3GB/s read speed and 1.2GB/s write speed.
