A few days ago we looked at the latest Solid State Drive from Intel – the 520 series, codenamed ‘Cherryville’. The drive is built around ‘compute quality’ 25 nanometer NAND flash memory and offers a claimed maximum sequential read speed of 550 MB/s. It claimed our top award earlier this week, thanks to the class leading performance and reassuring 5 year warranty.

It is almost unfair to call Synology's DiskStation DS212 a NAS server. It is capable of so much more than simply providing network attached storage, that a different classification should be established. Sure, it does a great job as a NAS, but owning one simply to serve files on a network would be like buying a really nice Swiss Army knife just for the tooth pick.

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...

Our release yesterday of our Intel 520 SSD Review (Round One) was probably one of the most anticipated events seen yet in the SSD arena and, if sales can be determined by the extreme numbers of readers who visited the site, Intel will do very well. In that review we made a promise, this being that we would follow up with the absolute best in RAID testing possible, displaying results only we could pull off. Welcome to Round Two folks and get ready for the knockout punch!

With an impressive set of specifications, we put the new Intel 520 Series 240GB SSD through our gauntlet of tests.

It's no secret that larger capacity SSDs are faster than the smaller capacity drives. The way data travels can be similar to a highway system, the more lanes a highway has the more cars you can push through at the same time. If SSDs only read and wrote on a one lane highway then we would be limited to less than 200MB/s on the highest rated flash available today. By opening up several lanes drives are able to reach very high speeds and do so without the limits of moving parts.

gestern lüftete Intel den Schleier für die Cherryville-SSD der 520-Serie. In dieser Reihe setzt der Halbleiterriese erstmals die Sandforce-2281-Controller von LSI Logic ein, will sich aber mit einer eigens entwickelten Firmware sowieso satten fünf Jahren Garantie vom Mitbewerb abheben. Unser Kurztest klärt, ob das gelingt.

The term “caching drive” is something that many people are becoming accustomed to as are we. We really started seeing these caching drives when Intel came out with their Z68 chipset that allowed you to add a smaller solid state drive to your existing drive, which would increase overall performance. This is great for people who have an Intel Z68 motherboard, but what about everyone else? This is where OCZ’s Synapse Cache drive comes in. It is a SATA 6GB/s solid state drive, but comes with software that allows you to make it a caching drive on any PC system. Read on as we check it out!

Technic3D hat die Intel 520 SSD Series „Cherryville“ im Test. Die Intel 520 SSD Serie nutzt einen SandForce Controller und setzt auf eine eigens entwickelte Firmware. Wie sich das 240 GB Modell im Test schlägt, zeigt der nachstehende Artikel.

Heute läuft Intels SSD 520 Serie (Codename: Cherryville) vom Stapel und dabei setzt Intel erstmals auf einen Controller des Herstellers SandForce. Genauer gesagt handelt es sich um den im Februar 2011 vorgestellten SandForce SF-2281. Und da stellt sich die Frage, ob Intels 520er-Serie nicht schon etwas zu spät kommt.
