OCZ today released a new enhanced IOPS firmware (v1.13) for the Octane SATA 3.0 Series SSDs.

According to the company, the random write performance has been significantly improved, in some capacities over double that of the previous specifications.

For all Octane SATA 6Gb/s models, the improved IOPS made possible by this new firmware allow for greater transactional performance, especially during small file and random access speeds in everyday computing applications.

The new enhanced IOPS firmware will begin shipping in the next batch of drives to resellers, and the upgrade file will be made available to OCZ's existing customers via the company's website.
