When it comes to all of these new devices such as tablets and Ultrabooks is that they do have a limited storage space. Whenever I am on the road or traveling I always have a portable hard drive with me. It gives me that extra storage space when I need it. Today we are taking a look at one of ADATA’s USB 3.0 portable hard drives. The DashDrive HV610 not only has a large capacity up to 1TB and super fast USB 3.0 transfer speeds it also has a cool cover that doubles as a holder for the USB 3.0 cable. Let’s see if this is the perfect portable hard drive to add to your travel bag.

As things are right now consumers are divided into two separate categories, the ones who support that building your own server from old or new computer parts is the way to go if you want power and the ones who'd rather purchase an standalone NAS server and be done without having to go the extra mile. Personally i think that each solution has both pros and cons with NAS servers getting slightly ahead not only because they are ready to use right from the box with all the applications anyone could wish for pre-installed but also due to their small size and very low power consumption. Of course for people who also want to use the server for games it goes without saying that a normal PC/HTPC is suited for the task. Now for the past 12 months we've covered quite a few NAS server solutions by both QNAP and Thecus but today we will be covering an NAS server from Synology a name we haven't seen in a while and since we have managed to secure a brand new DiskStation DS213+ for our giveaway it only makes sense for us to show all of you what will end up in the hands of our lucky winner.

Cela fait maintenant quelques temps que Crucial exploite avec succès le M4, un SSD qui a fait ses preuves tant en termes de fiabilité que de performances. Aujourd'hui, la marque nous revient avec un tout nouveau SSD, le M500, qui vient donc assurer la relève du M4. Annoncé pour 500 Mo/sec en lecture, 400 Mo/sec en écriture, ce dernier devrait normalement proposer des performances de haut-vol. Vérifions tout cela dans ce nouvel article.

It seems that OWC has been at it once again and we recently received a new OWC Accelsior E2 PCIe SSD, fitted with two 240GB blade SSDs for excellent performance and capacity once again. The Accelsior is the latest design of the OWC engineering team and contains two 6Gbps eSATA ports that provide for external storage up to 32TB as well as performance similar to the original Accelsior. Once again, OWC has caught us off guard and this seems to be a first and great idea for increasing performance to another level and increasing capacity significantly. The beauty of the Accelsior has always been its expansion capabilities but this knocks the original capacity maximum out of the ball park.

The product we are looking at here, is the QNAP TS-269L NAS. It's a 2-bay NAS box with a 1.86GHz Intel Atom processor and 1GB RAM. There are good opportunities for connecting external devices via 2x USB3.0, 3x USB 2.0, 2x USB 3.0 and 1x eSATA. The NAS box also uses their latest firmware, which among other things allows you to watch and record TV directly through a tuner.

“ Kurz vor unserem Urlaub wollen wir die Gelegenheit nutzen und euch noch eine SSD vorstellen, die ausnahmsweise mal nicht aus der Kategorie High End stammt, sondern eher der gehobenen Mittelklasse zuzuordnen wäre: die neue SanDisk Ultra Plus mit 256 GB Kapazität, einer seit November 2012 gängigen Größe für unsere SSD Tests.
Völlig überraschend verfügt auch diese SSD über einen Controller aus den bewährten Regalen von Marvell, diesmal allerdings mit der Bezeichnung SS889175. Dieser Controller darf mit Verlaub als abgespeckte Version des 88SS9174 Controllers bezeichnet werden, den wir ja hinlänglich von der Intel 510 SSD Serie kennen. Das deutlichste Unterscheidungsmerkmal stellt zweifellos die 4-kanalige Anbindung dar, wohingegen der 88SS9174 Controller über eine 8-kanalige Anbindung verfügt. Die verfügbaren Kapazitäten der SanDisk Ultra Plus Serie beschränken sich derzeit auf die Modelle mit 64,128 und 256 GB Kapazität. Die Random 4K Lesewerte werden mit 82000 IOPS angegeben, die Random 4K Schreibwerte mit 39000 IOPS. Für die sequentiellen Transferleistungen in MB bedeutet dies in etwa 530 MB/s fürs Lesen und ca. 445 MB/s fürs Schreiben.
Noch interessanter offenbart sich das aktuelle Preisgefüge, denn die 256 GB Variante wird im Netz derzeit für ca. 145 € avisiert, was wir angesichts der theoretischen Leistung für mehr als adäquat erachten, wenn es denn im Praxistest bei den versprochenen Transfer Resultaten bleibt. Genau das haben wir sehr genau überprüft, darum wünschen wir euch jetzt wieder spannende Unterhaltung beim Lesen unseres neuesten SSD Reviews..."

It's been quite a long time since we're published a RAID report. Today is Seagate's big day with four product categories emerging from under the covers. We ended up with a pair for 600 SSD 240GB drives so it was a perfect opportunity to try them in RAID 0.

With USB 3.0 becoming more of a standard these days many companies are coming out with new USB 3.0 flash drives. These new flash drives not only hold more data but they can transfer that data a hell of alot faster. No one wants to wait around for their files to transfer. ADATA has a new USB 3.0 flash drive that looks just as good as it performs. The DashDrive Elite UE700 has a brushed aluminum finish and features read and write speeds of up to 190 MB/s and 50 MB/s respectively. Let’s see what this drive is all about!
