Conclusion

With the Deneva 2 R 200 Gigabyte eMCL SSD, OCZ has an enterprise SATA SSD in its portfolio which features a highly attractive price. Compared to other enterprise SATA drives with eMLC memory, this OCZ SSD is really cheap and the drive also doesn't lack performance. Regarding sequential throughput rates, we see 540 Megabyte per second in case of maximum read as well as write performance. Nevertheless it was rather interesting to see that their was a little dent regarding 1 thread sequential write performance with a block size of 256 Kilobyte. But still, the overall performance is solid and competitive.
Once we have a closer look at random throughput rates, we see that the Deneva 2 R 200 Gigabyte hits 74'000 IOPS regarding random write and 55'000 IOPS when it comes to random read. These values are not in its own league but they're still high enough to speed up a storage appliance that lacks 4K random performance.

Despite the fact, that this is a drive equipped with eMLC NAND Flash OCZ only asks 310 Euro for it and they still offer three year warranty with dedicated FAE/FSE support through product manager or engineer. Usually prices for eMLC drives start with 200 Gigabyte start at 600 Euro. Depending on service levels prices can vary greatly.

Should you be looking for an enterprise grade SSD, that features eMLC NAND flash memory and should the mentioned PBW values suite your needs, then it definitely won't hurt to have a closer look at the Deneva 2 R 200 GB eMLC SSD. Because of it's highly competitive price, this drive could under some circumstances even be recommended to consumers with a need for an SSD that offers high reliability.
