OCZ Technology Group, Inc. will expand its
Research and Development (R&D) Center in Orange County, CA which is focused

The company has a current presence in the area and is moving to a new expanded
Irvine R&D location.

"Orange County, CA has a rich base
of engineering talent covering semiconductors and storage that makes it a
viable location for us to expand our design center," said James Tout,

a leading and widely recognized portfolio of SATA, SAS and PCIe-based
solid-state solutions, we believe that the opening of our new OC-based design
center will attract the professional resources and talent we need to create
leading-edge, next-generation enterprise products for the storage industry."

As the need for faster, more reliable and cost effective storage grows in the
enterprise market, OCZ is committed to enabling customers with flash hardware and software solutions that solve storage challenges by
accelerating application performance, optimizing IT infrastructures, and
enhancing overall manageability while delivering superior TCO. The company
achieves this with a range of SSDs, based on in-house technology,
and combines them with proprietary enterprise virtualization software to
create complete solid state solutions that enable users to get faster and more
reliable access to critical applications and data.
