OCZ Summit 120GB SSD Review

Packaging and Accessories

The box which the Summit drive resides in is done in an all black color scheme with white and silver font. In some ways it does remind us a lot of the Corsair’s P64 SSD's (which we reviewed awhile back) all white box in that it is simple, understated and well designed.


Unlike the Corsair’s all white box, OCZ has included a lot of information and details which will help first time buyers make an informed decision. All of the information we would like to see is there without anything missing.


By opening up the pretty packaging and looking inside, we are once again greeted with the best in class protection scheme found on all OCZ SSDs we have looked at. Don’t get us wrong, most SSDs we have reviewed have come in more than adequately protective boxes but OCZs is simply the better design.

Concisely, the SSD comes in a static-proof wrapping which is then snuggly form fitted into the center of a foam box. The foam protects the drive from lateral and off axis blunt force trauma and the front and back are protected by thick cardboard.


As is becoming a reoccurring theme with ALL Solid State Drives we have reviewed (except for that first gen SLC based G.Skill 64GB SSD we reviewed many moons ago and the Patriot Torqx), the list of accessories is on the low end. Only including an thin instruction pamphlet is par for the course ; but we really wish ALL 2.5” form factor SSDs came with a 3.5” adapter like the Torqx did.
