Today’s review is on the Super Talent RC8 50 GB USB Flash Drive which just may be the most powerful flash drive on the planet. Who would expect more from a ‘SandForce Driven’ product pushing 8 channels of NAND flash memory? Lets not confuse things though as this USB 3.0 flash drive is a solid state drive through and through. We hope that the tale told by the RC8 in our report will, not only teach you a thing or two about SSDs but also, provide you with a glimpse of the RC8s capabilities in the near future.

Die Phoenix EVO von G.Skill verfügt über einen SandForce Controller der ersten Generation. Ob sie damit wirklich schon zum alten Eisen gehört? Oder reicht die Performance trotzdem noch aus um einen Geschwindigkeitsvorteil gegenüber herkömmlichen Festplatten zu registrieren? Wir haben die SSD auf Herz und Nieren geprüft. Das Ergebnis hat uns positiv überrascht, und in Kombination mit den geringen Preis ist die EVO alles andere als ausgemustert.

ADATA isn't new to the SATA III market. The company already released the S501; a Marvell controlled SATA III drive with good wear capabilities. The S501 was a stopgap product between ADATA's successful S599 SandForce SF-1200 drive and the new S511 featuring SandForce's latest flagship, the SF-2281.

Nach wie vor sind Solid-State-Drives viel teurer als Festplatten, daher hört sich das Konzept des SSD Xpanders von Icy Dock vielversprechend an: Dieser Adapter vereint ein Solid-State-Drive mit einer Festplatte und verdoppelt dadurch die Speicherkapazität der Systempartition, während der übrige Speicherbereich der Festplatte für Daten erhalten bleibt.

For at least two years solid state drives have been an area of rapid growth. No other technology has increased user experience or productivity in the last ten years like what has become our 200 Dollar, 128GB SSD. For years we went through cycles of adding more RAM and faster processors while our 50 year old traditional HDD design gained a few megabytes per second of performance. The HDD let us down with slow growth and moderate performance gains. A revolving digital image of an hourglass became the symbol of the storage product market's failure.

This year network storage is becoming more popular as the growing adoption of computers has meant that most households have several computers and sometimes even a games console or two. To support this market Silverstone have created a product that is rather unique in its innovation – the DC01S.

If you have been following our reviews here at APH Networks for the last little while, you will notice the same pattern every year. If you know exactly what I am talking about, this means it is now time for yet another QNAP network attached storage review. Case in point: Check out the dates on our QNAP TS-409, TS-439 Pro, and TS-559 Pro+ articles (Actually, it is just a coincidence, haha). While it is not necessarily explicitly planned to have one of these sweet network appliances landing at our Calgary, Alberta location near the beginning of the Fall semester every year, it just happened to be this way, so why break this excellent tradition now? With that in mind, sitting on our racks for testing this afternoon is QNAP's latest 5-bay creation for SMB/corporate applications. Okay, I am going to say "SMB/corporate" very loosely; just because it costs over $1000 at press time, and loaded with every feature IT professionals can possibly dream of, does not mean it is not composed with brilliant cloud multimedia capabilities even casual home users will come to love. Before we move into the meat of our review this afternoon, let me clear up a few things right off the bat. Firstly, for those who are new to the NAS market, why would anyone pay over a grand for a system powered by an Atom processor with 1GB of RAM? Simply put, you are not just paying for the hardware. The user friendly software -- and all the features it comes with -- is where its value stands. Secondly, what is the difference between the new QNAP TS-559 Pro II and the last generation TS-559 Pro+? To be honest, it is not a whole lot. Upgrades include SATA 6Gb/s, two USB 3.0 and four USB 2.0 ports rather than five USB 2.0 ports, and user upgradeable memory. So if you already own a TS-559 Pro+, chances are that you do not need to upgrade. But if are buying a new NAS now, what does QNAP's unmatched reliability, brilliant software, and awesome performance bring to the table today? We will have all the juicy details covered in this review.

It is almost four years to the day that the first consumer solid state drive was making its appearance which makes todays EXCLUSIVE SATA 3 mSATA SSD review truly sweet. Runcore is timing this ‘world first’ release with the news that they are also opening shop in California to better serve North American enterprise and client needs. The Runcore T50 mSATA SSD is ‘SandForce Driven’ with the SF-2281 processor and capable of equal 500MB/s speeds and, incredibly, ways the same as a 25 cent piece.

A few weeks ago we covered the Corsair Force Series GT drive, a performance tuned model based on Sandforce technology. Today we have the Force Series 3 drive on our test bench, a drive that aims to target a lower price point while still offering excellent performance.

Die Postville G2-Generation der Intel SSDs hat mittlerweile ein paar Jahre auf dem Buckel. In der Zwischenzeit gab es im Sektor der schnellen Flash-Laufwerke einige Quantensprünge und umso interessanter ist es, wie sich der Chip-Gigant mittels neuem Speicher und altbewährtem Controller der starken Konkurrenz stellt. Zusätzlich bringt die Intel SSD 320 Series einige weitere, neue Features mit sich.
