Intel has been dominating the performance CPU market since the release of its Core 2 Duo chips several years ago, but there’s another sector of the market the firm has also been quietly attempting to conquer; Solid State Storage. Intel’s current consumer-focused drive is known as the X25-M (GM2); with the M standing for “mainstream”. Today we will be looking at the 80GB variant.

Imagine 1.8GB/s read and write performance with up to 200, 000 IOPS being possible in a NGFF/mSATA form factor. This article not only verifies that LSI SandForces new controller, Codename Griffin, is about to make an amazing transformation in the SSD industry, but also, these blistering speeds will be seen soon enough in ultrabooks.

There are many models of hard drive docks on the market, and while each one should be able to get the job done efficiently, the Ineo Technology I-NA321U+ will definitely do everything you expect and then some. What sets this hard drive dock apart is the integrated drive copy function, which allows you to clone a drive without tying up your computer in the process.

USB 3.0 has a lot of promise for devices that need large amounts of bandwidth. So far we've only been given a glimpse of what the specification has to offer. The big marketing claim for USB 3.0 has always been 'up to 10x USB 2.0 speeds', but in our real world testing we've only been able to achieve around 200MB/s. With USB 2.0 topping out at around 35MB/s on a good day, 10x USB 2.0 has yet to be achieved. There are several reasons for this, but what it really comes down to is PCIe bandwidth and what current chipsets are able to make available after all those video cards, SATA, eSATA and USB ports take up. On top of the bandwidth limitations is the current crop of USB 3.0 controller and bridge chips. Many do not offer the 10x bandwidth we have been promised.

Sharkoons Flexi-Drive Ultimate ist der erste USB-3.0-Stick mit einem nativen 8-Kanal-Controller für USB-Sticks. Ob diese Parität mit aktuellen SSD-Controllern ausreicht, um die Leistung eine Solid State Drives zu erreichen? Im Vergleich mit den Spitzenmodellen der Konkurrenz muss der 64 Gigabyte große Speicherstick es unter Beweis stellen.

Hot on the heels of our last series of SSD reviews, we're featuring another mini-roundup. This time, we're looking at four drives in the 120-128GB capacity range. Focusing on performance on both the PC and Mac platforms, we have SSDs from Crucial, Kingston, OCZ and Other World Computing. While the first three names are well known in the computer hardware industry, the last has had a long history in the Mac oriented hardware upgrade market.
