Personally, I always find that comparing real world noticeable differences between SSD is like splitting hair, but in this case, the Agility 3 is really quite old (well over 3 years!), and even when it was introduced, it was a "budget priced" product that uses asynchronous NAND chips compared to the slightly faster Vertex 3 that uses synchronous NAND chips. And today's SSDs already leave the Vertex 3 in the dust in terms of performance.

So really, given the choice, I would skip over the Agility 3 drive now.
