By plugging in the Transcend RDF8 USB 3.0 Memory Card Reader into one of the available USB 3.0 ports on the ASUS UX31A we found performance increased nicely. The sequential read and write speeds jumped up to 81MB/s and 45MB/s, respectively. Speed aside it also supports other memory card formats that we previously couldn't do, so you get more than just a speed boost!

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.

With all the talk about TLC, 20nm and other new forms of flash that reduce the number of P/E cycles - it's nice to see one company fight against the flow. PNY's Prevail Elite is a 10K P/E cycle SSD that uses a LSI SF-2200 Series controller.

It’s been a bit since I’ve taken a look at any USB 3.0 related products hasn’t it? I think the last thing was an enclosure, and while enclosures are nice I much prefer docks, they’re just so much more useful and so much more easier to use. Today for review I’ve got a product from our friends over at Cirago, it’s the CDD2000 USB 3.0 hard drive docking station. This dock from Cirago is well made, and looks good, and it works well. The price is lower than many others out there so if you’re made the jump to USB 3.0 then you might want to read more..

I remember a time when in the market you could only find USB flash drives by a handful of companies (the well-established ones) so it didn't really take more than just a few minutes for you to pick the one you liked the most especially since all their performance levels were nearly identical (and if by some miracle a really faster model got released well you immediately knew which one it was). Today things have changed massively and so if you walk to the USB flash drive section of pretty much any store you will find a large number of models from an equally large number of manufacturers making it quite hard to pick the right one for the job (providing of course you don't just care about the size or looks). That being said the sheer number of USB flash drive models currently in the market makes it impossible for us to test all of them in order to make it easier for all of you to know what it is that you are really getting with your hard earned money but giving up is not in our vocabulary so today we will be taking yet another thorough look at one such device the Blaze B20 32GB USB 3.0 flash drive by Silicon Power.

Thecus took a great NAS and made it even better with the N3200 Pro. It's difficult to tell it apart from the original N3200 just by looking at it, because underneath the hood is where all the upgrades have taken place. During testing, RAID 5 build time was impressive and transferring files with the Pro model is faster when compared to its predecessor.

Today we review the OCZ Synapse cache SSD drive; you may be wondering why the name cache has been included in the title of this specific drive, well this is because unlike most SSD drives of which are primarily used as your main drive and used only to install Windows. The OCZ Synapse Cache SSD drives purpose is to upgrade your current system, specifically your current hard drive...

We've taken a look at a handful of drives from Kingston's V and V+ Series of solid state drives, and this time around we actually have the smallest capacity drive on hand. This 30GB drive is intended for use as a boot drive, meaning you load your operating system and core programs to it, and use a second drive for file storage.

Ich möchte heute einen weiteren USB Stick vorstellen. Diesmal aus dem Hause Patriot. Der kleine Stick soll vorwiegend durch Geschwindigkeit bei kleinem Preis überzeugen. Was er verspricht, seht ihr im nachfolgendem Test.

SanDisk brings another consumer friendly SSD to the market. This four-channel controlled drive should hit a very low price point and the programming should keep it very quick.
