Every so often a subject presents itself that, on the surface, leaves people wondering what the heck the company had in mind when they started the production line rolling. The 320 Series SSD seems to be just that as word of this SSD was leaked a few weeks back and the technology community seems to think Intel would be crazy to release this in a time of so many SATA 3 SSD releases. What the heck is Intel thinking?!?
As the demand for storage space increases we have seen a handful of manufacturers releasing larger and faster USB 3.0 pen drives. In January we reviewed the Kingston DataTraveler HyperX Predator 512GB drive which broke new ground for performance. The only downside was the asking price, a staggering £650 inc vat. Today we are looking at the latest SuperSonic Magnum 256GB USB 3.0 pen drive, priced at a more palatable £250 inc vat.
This week has been an ‘SSD-fest’ on KitGuru and today we are going to take another look at the excellent Intel X25-V SSD 40GB units which we reviewed last month in both single and dual Raid 0 configurations.
We take a look at five of the latest 240 GB SATA-600 solid state drives to see how their performance compares. We will be testing the Crucial M4 C400, Intel 510 Series, Mushkin Chromos, OCZ Vertex 3 MAX IOPS, and OWC Mercury Extreme Pro 6G. Let’s see which one comes out on top!
Kingston’s HyperX moniker has always been assigned to their performance products whether it is computer memory or USB drives. Now you can add SSDs to that naming convention as they have released the HyperX SSD, a performance based drive geared towards the computer enthusiast market.
Today I have with me one of Vantec’s latest upgrades to one of their more popular external enclosure solutions: the NexStar HX4. The NexStar HX4 is a quad-bay storage solution with USB 3.0 and eSATA interfaces. The HX4 lacks some features such as RAID, but makes up for it with a quad-bay classic individual drive mode enclosure. This makes the HX4 afantastic external enclosure for the home or small office. Let's take a closer look at the Vantec NexStar HX4.
Notebook schneller machen leicht gemacht. Wer ein Notebook oder Netbook besitzt und mit der Geschwindigkeit unzufrieden ist, kann die Notebook Performance schnell und relativ preiswert signifikant steigern. Viele denken beim Notebook Upgrade sofort an eine Speicheraufrüstung, an eine neue CPU oder an eine Übertaktung der CPU. Einen enormen Performancezuwachs bringt aber auch die Installation einer schnellen SSD anstatt der HDD. In diesem Testbericht zeigen wir auf www.ocinside.de, daß man selbst Notebooks mit einer IDE bzw. PATA Festplatte durch eine schnelle SSD aufrüsten kann, um so die Performance enorm zu verbessern. Getestet wurde dafür die Mach Xtreme Technology 60GB PATA 50-Pin SSD im 1,8-Zoll Format, die gerade mal 5mm dünn ist und anstatt einer Toshiba MK8007GAH 1,8-Zoll PATA Festplatte in ein Toshiba Portege R400 Notebook eingebaut wurde. Desweiteren wurde die 60GB MX-NANO 50 PATA SSD mit einem Adapter an einer aktuellen SATA 3 Schnittstelle getestet, um sie mit den zuvor getesteten Solid State Drives und Festplatten zu vergleichen. Wer den nächsten Urlaub für die Anschaffung eines neuen Notebooks bereits abgeschrieben hat, sollte sich den Test nicht entgehen lassen.
Synology describes its new DS414j as the successor to the DS413. It’s a 4-bay NAS device, aimed at home users and SOHO environments requiring up to 20TB of storage, and they put the emphasis on the ‘retro looking black chassis, dual core CPU … and USB 3.0 which combine to make it ‘the fastest and most powerful J series NAS from Synology to date.’
PCSTATS is testing out SanDisk's Extreme 240GB SSD, a 6Gb/s SATA III drive rated to 550MB/s Read and 520MB/s Write (sequential) in ATTO Disk Benchmark. SanDisk's Extreme SSD uses 24nm Toggle Mode MLC NAND Flash and the popular LSI SandForce SF-2281 controller.
The Kingston V+ 200 has shown good performance overall. It also comes with a great packaging and a three year warranty, but most importantly with a low price. If you are looking for an SSD that will give life to your laptop or your desktop PC without spending a lot of money, then this drive is one to look at very closely
