Early on in their debut, Solid State Drives were planned as included equipment on new computers coming from tier one manufacturers such as Dell, HP, and Apple. In one way or another they made good on their word, but the inflated price for these premium options made SSDs a distant reality. This situation created the perfect condition for a enthusiastic upgrade market. Not surprisingly, manufacturers went after the individual consumer after losing traction with mass system builders, and upgrade kits became the obvious solution for many enthusiasts. Kingston is well known for manufacturing their own memory products, but when it came to the new SSD technology they turned to proven sources such as Samsung. In this article, Benchmark Reviews tests the Kingston SSDNow V+ Series 64GB SATA-II MLC SSD SNV225-S2/64GB.

Vector 150 120GB comes with 128GB of NAND flash. Overprovisioning moves the user capacity down to 120GB, but steady state performance gets a boost.

It’s only a short time ago that I reviewed the Samsung 840 series of SSDs. The 840 series was the first consumer grade SSD to use TLC (Triple Level Cell) NAND. I am still conduction long term endurance testing on the 840 series SSD, and so far it has proved to be very durable.If the 840 SSD has a weakness, then it is most certainly its sequential writing performance, which by today’s standards is rather pedestrian.
Meet the new Samsung 840 EVO series of SSDs, which is said to address the lack of sequential writing performance on the original 840, and offer even more performance in other departments as well.The 840 EVO series is available in the following capacities. 120GB, 250GB, 500GB, 750GB, and finally a 1000GB version.
They all use Samsung’s new 19nm Toggle 2 TLC NAND, and also feature a new faster SSD controller. You can read about the new hardware on the next page.Samsung sent me two SSDs, the 750GB version, and the 250GB version which I will be taking a look at in this article.
I will cover the 750GB version in the coming days.So let’s find out how this new SSD performs in our range of tests.

Mit der Thunderbolt SSD von Elgato sowie dem Pegasus R6 von Promise (haben wir uns bereits zwei Massenspeicher mit Datenübertragung über die Thunderbolt-Schnittstelle angeschaut. Beide Speicher unterscheiden sich maßgeblich und auch der dritte Vertreter, die Pegasus J2, ist nur auf den ersten Blick ein einfacher Flash-Speicher mit Thunderbolt-Anschluss - doch dazu später mehr. USB 3.0 heißt die Konkurrenz, doch dies bezieht sich nur auf die Schnittstelle, nicht aber das Laufwerk als solches. Wir wollen uns die Performance des Pegasus J2 anschauen und gegen die bisherige Konkurrenz vergleichen.

Putting new technology to work is the Areca way. The name might have stayed the same, but this new ARC-1882i gets a boost in performance from its PCIe 3.0 connector.

Mit dem Revo-Drive bietet OCZ ein rasend schnelles, Sandforce-basiertes SSD-RAID auf einer PCI-Express-x4-Karte mit 120 oder 240 GByte Speicherplatz. Der Praxistest von PC Games Hardware sagt, was Sie von diesem ungewöhnlichen Stück Hardware erwarten können.

It seems like every week another company joins the SSD fray with a drive of their own. Granted, there's still a lot of users that still haven't made the leap from the trusty old platter hard drive. Does Zalman, a company best known for their cooling and cases, have what it takes to get a piece of the SSD pie? They're making an effort with their launch of two different SSD lines. We'll have a look at the N Series to see if it stacks up with the other SandForce drives already on the market.

Heute wurden zwei schnelle Crucial m4 128GB SSDs im RAID0 Verbund getestet, um noch mehr Performance zu erhalten. Bezüglich TRIM gibt es bei einem SSD RAID zwar nach wie vor Schwachpunkte, aber ob es in der Praxis wirklich von Bedeutung ist, werden wir im aktuellen Testbericht der Redaktion ocinside.de sehen. Das Gespann aus 2x Crucial m4 128GB im RAID0 tritt den Vergleich gegen 1x Crucial m4 256GB und gegen 1x Crucial m4 128GB an. Wir werden sehen, wer die Nase vorn behält und ob man besser eine große SSD oder zwei kleinere SSDs kaufen sollte.

One of the things i always wanted to try (and it seems many of you wanted that as well judging by the many emails i received when i first mentioned this) was to test the same exact hard disk drive with both SATA II and SATA III connectivity to see if there were any real gains at all between both models. Of course as you all know it's not very easy to come across two versions (SATA II/III) of the same exact HDD so it was pure luck when i stumbled on the SATA II version of the latest Ultrastar 7K4000 4TB enterprise class HDD from Hitachi GST (HGST now) roughly one month ago. Back then however i didn't have the SATA III version in my hands so this comparison was left unfinished until i did and that time has come.

The Torqx performed very well and near or at the top in just about all benchmarks. That being said, benchmarks do not always equate to how the drives perform in the real world and over time. I spent some time playing around on Windows 7 installed on the drive for quite while. I did a lot of multi-tasking, simultaneous file copies and moves, and played a game or two as well. I didn't notice any problems with stuttering and the system felt very crisp and responsive with Windows booting in less than twenty seconds from completion of BIOS load.
