The Marvell 88SS9174 isn't quite sixty years old, but the controller first hit the scene in January 2010, a long time in computer component years. Just like the 911, each minor revision adds to the speed and functionality. Also like the 911, the components that surround the main controller have changed to produce a better product.
Kürzlich erweiterte OCZ das Portfolio an Solid State Drives mit der Hybrid-Solution-Serie. Das erste Modell dieser Reihe stellt die OCZ RevoDrive Hybrid dar. Das Besondere daran ist der Zusammenschluss einer ein Terabyte großen HDD mit einer 100 Gigabyte umfassenden SSD auf einer PCI-E-Steckkarte. Der Flash-Speicher dient dabei als Cache der mechanischen Festplatte und ermöglicht somit schnelle Zugriffszeiten sowie hohe Transferraten für die häufig genutzten Dateien. Die Verwaltung der Dateien übernimmt die Dataplex-Caching-Software, die völlig selbständig arbeitet.
Intended for business users, the Micron P400e offers solid performance coming and data reliability from its custom firmware driven Marvell 9174 controller, although the lack of encryption and weak 4k writes are definitely soft spots which may not be too much of an issue for some...
You may not have noticed but there's been a changing of the guard when it comes to SSDs based on Marvell controllers. The first Marvell SATA 6G drive to enter the market was the Crucial C300. The C300 battled it out with the first generation SandForce controller which at the time were limited to SATA 3G speeds of 285MB/s read. The C300 took advantage of SATA 6G and mustered an impressive 375MB/s read speed in our tests of the 256GB model. At that time Crucial was the only SSD manufacture using a Marvell controller. Last year Crucial released their second product based on a Marvell controller, the Crucial m4. The exclusivity was lost though as more companies started churning out products based on the Marvell design, mainly Intel, Corsair and Plextor.
The competition wasn't favorable for Crucial and the Marvell SSD market was pretty evenly divided amongst the newly formed Team Marvell group. For the most part each of these Marvell products resembled the other and there wasn't a real standout. Intel jumped ship completely and is now playing for Team SandForce, partly because they couldn't compete with their IMFT flash and the Marvell controller. Crucial is in that same boat as of now but with 20nm IMFT flash far on the horizon they are a ship without a paddle. Then there is the unbound.
Today’s SSD landscape consists of two major players, LSI SandForce and Marvell, both of whom seem to be in a cat fight for top spot with several companies using their controller architecture in their respective SSD products. Plextor has wisely chosen the server-grade Marvell 88SS9174 Marvell processor for their M3 and our report will give you an in depth view of one of the top SSDs on the market, the Plextor M3 SATA 3 256GB SSD.
If you own a desktop computer, or even a dual drive laptop computer, and you haven’t considered the advantages of solid state drives yet, this review is going to open your eyes. Our review today will examine the Crucial Adrenaline SATA 3 50GB Caching SSD and how it fits into the consumer market. We will explain the simplicity of installation, examine the performance gain and we will draw a very clear picture of how this SSD can benefit you in your typical daily computer activity
Today for review I’ve got another SSD, this time it’s from Micron and it’s an entry level enterprise product. The drive is the RealSSD P400e and it has a capacity of 200gb. This drive is meant to have a low cost but yet perform well in enterprise situations, of course they can be used in home setup as well. It utilizes the SATA III interface for maximum speeds and it’s made to be durable and have a long life.
Nous avons découvert il y a peu un premier SSD de Sandisk en SF-1200, et ce dernier avait clairement retenu notre attention, grâce à un excellent rapport qualité/prix. Aujourd'hui, nous testons le Extreme, dernier SSD SATA III en date de la marque, et qui se targue d'afficher plus de 500 Mo/sec en lecture comme en écriture. A découvrir maintenant.
We first saw the Patriot Wildfire back in June of 2011 and at the time it was one of the hottest new SSDs on the market. That was around 9 months ago so while no longer new, Wildfire is still competitive with, and considered one of the best on the market today. The key to Wildfire's longevity is the Toshiba Toggle Mode flash Patriot chose to use on this SSD.
Toshiba and their partner SanDisk has received a lot of press lately for their new 24nm Toggle Mode flash. The new 24nm flash has proven to be very fast, but that is about the only thing it's proved so far. We're still seeing issues in our labs with write performance degrading rapidly until TRIM finishes its cycle. This was not a problem on the older 32nm Toggle Mode flash, the same used on the Patriot Wildfire.
Up for review today I have something that I haven’t reviewed in a long time, an SSD drive. Yes it’s been about 2 years actually, wow time just flies doesn’t it?! So for review today I have the OCZ Vertex 3 240GB SSD which features the latest Sandforce controller and uses the newer SATA III connection for extremely fast read and write speeds. If you’re looking for a truly fast way to speed up your system and basically everything you do then this is it.
