Re: [H] OCZ is still a good company....
Absolutely. Last I researched, PCP&C Silencers were made by SeaSonic and the Turbo-Cool line was made by Win-Tact--both top tier OEMs. AFAIK, PCP&C has never done any actual PSU manufacturing...they (were/are) a design-only firm. > -Original Message- > From: hardware-boun...@hardwaregroup.com [mailto:hardware- > boun...@hardwaregroup.com] On Behalf Of maccrawj > Sent: Wednesday, September 02, 2009 6:24 PM > To: hardware@hardwaregroup.com > Subject: Re: [H] OCZ is still a good company > > It's also important too know who made the actual PSU though I can't > remember if PCP&C > sub-contracts or not. >
Re: [H] OCZ is still a good company....
Yep, I had a 3 year old PSU die and they sent me a more expensive replacement. OCZ is a good company and if I ever take the solid state hardrive plunge it will be with them.

Re: [H] OCZ is still a good company....
It's also important too know who made the actual PSU though I can't remember if PCP&C sub-contracts or not. There's also otherwise great products killed by suppliers of components making mistakes like bad capacitor issue or by using cheaper parts in some areas to save money.

My only word of caution is don't expect to buy any brand of anything and expect zero failures. Bad parts and failures are just part of the business--and PCP&C (or my usual preference for SeaSonic-branded units) is certainly no exception. I recently had to RMA a 120GB OCZ Vertex SSD (out of the 45 we ordered, one being DOA is nearly inevitable) and it was an easy transaction. Greg

Re: [H] OCZ is still a good company....
Just as an FYI, my 16GB Corsair thumb drive died. Corsair emailed me back with an RMA in less than an hour after requesting it via their website. No cross-shipping though.

JRS, Great report! I've wondered about OCZ ever since they bought up my favorite PSU supplier PCP&C. I do now look at Greg's shares, but end up buying from PCP&C. I have zero psu failures to date in the past 14 years. Best, Duncan JRS wrote: One of my 4 gig Flash drives died, so I went online and asked for an RMA..

One of my 4 gig Flash drives died, so I went online and asked for an RMA.. Here it is, 2 hours later, and they have a new one on the way already and all I have to do is return the bad one within 15 days of receiving the replacement thumb drive. :) Kudos to OCZ :) -- JRS stei...@pacbell.net Facts do not cease to exist just because they are ignored.
