      Ok so your going from an Indilinx controller in your Vertex 1 to a sandforce in a vertex 3.Go for something around the 240 range and youll notice the performance increase.

        I'm guessing you have the OCZ OCZSSD2-1VTX60G. Upgrading to something like the Vertex 3 will improve your system:

        Vertex 1:
        Read: ~200MB/sec
        Write: ~160MB/sec

        Vertex 2:
        Read: ~285MB/sec
        Write: ~275MB/sec

        Vertex 3 MAX OPS:
        Read: ~550MB/sec
        Write: ~550MB/sec

        A lot of new SSDs will give you this ~500+MB/sec performance spec.
