OCZ ha ampliato il proprio catalogo di dischi a stato solido o Solid State Drives (SSD) da 2.5" aggiungendo alla gamma OCZ Core la linea OCZ Core V2. I nuovi drive implementano tutte le più recenti evoluzioni della tecnologia SSD: in accordo al produttore possono vantare una capacità di memorizzazione che può raggiungere i 250GB, ed hanno prestazioni elevate, forti della velocità in lettura di 170MB/S e della velocità in scrittura di 98MB/s. Il tempo di ricerca e accesso al dato, indicato spesso con la terminologia di "seek time", è compreso tra 0.2ms e 0.3ms.

In pieno stile OCZ è l'affidabilità dichiarata, che, favorita anche dalle feature tipiche della tecnologia SSD, assicura un Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) pari a ben 1.5 milioni di ore.
