Vorgestellt wurde die Samsung 840 EVO schon auf der Global Summit im Juli 2013, dass wir sie erst jetzt testen hat mehrere Gründe. Einerseits prüfen wir grundsätzlich keine Vorab Samples mehr und andererseits wollten wir nach Möglichkeit das erste inzwischen erhältliche Firmware Update noch abwarten, so dass einem interessantem Praxis Test nichts mehr im Wege stand. Erwähnenswert ist in diesem Zusammenhang sicherlich auch die Frage, warum Samsung seine 840er Hierarchie erweitert, zumal sie durch die 840 Basic und die 840 Pro eigentlich recht klar definiert wurde.
Die Samsungs 840 SSD Serie stellt die bisher erfolgreichste Modellreihe des südkoreanischen Konzerns dar. Auf dem SSD Global Summit 2013 präsentierte man stolz die Zahl von 2,524 Millionen SSD, welche aus dieser Serie bereits verkauft wurden. Seit ihrer Einführung im September/Oktober 2012 soll diese Reihe somit 20 Prozent der weltweiten SSD-Verkäufe ausgemacht haben, eine erstaunlich hohe Zahl. Samsung hat für die 840 EVO natürlich auch einige Marketing Trommeln betätigt, sei es nun die TurboWrite-Technologie, Advanced Signal Processing, der Dynamic Thermal Guard-Algorithmus oder die RAPID-Cache-Funktion über die Samsung Magician Software, dem Kunden wird eine Menge an Vorteilen versprochen. Da stellt sich natürlich die Frage: wie verhalten sich diese Features in der realen Praxis und wovon profitiert der Nutzer daheim ? denn spektakuläre Benchmark Screenshots sagen in der Regel sehr wenig über die Praxistauglichkeit eins Laufwerkes aus. Diese und weitere Fragen werden in unserem neuesten SSD Review beantwortet, dazu wünschen wir euch jetzt schon viel Vergnügen....

Nearly two years after the release of the Crucial M4, Crucial unveiled the M500, which we'll be reviewing today. The Crucial M500 now follows the exact same naming scheme used by Micron, so as far as I’m concerned the Crucial M500 and the Micron M500 are pretty much the same thing, similar to what we saw with the Crucial M4 and the Micron C400. As usual...

Today we take a look at Western Digital’s My Cloud Personal Cloud Storage, an external hard drive system that connects to your home network and can be access from the internet via a PC, smartphone, or tablet just like a cloud base service. The WD My Cloud is a personal private cloud at its core and is basically a Network Attached Storage (NAS) device designed to have tons of functionality and extremely an easy to use GUI. Today we’ll be talking a look at the WD My Cloud 2TB.

Since they entered the NAS marketplace a few years back Synology have been continually evolving their products. The majority of their products get a yearly refresh for enhanced performance and features and between hardware launches their DiskStation Manager OS has continued to receive significant new revisions. Today we take a look at the latest revision of each, the DS414j (their first j model with dual core CPU + FPU and USB 3.0) with DSM 5.0.

Intel’s 9-series chipset has launched and one of the most interesting features that it delivers is native support for M.2 SSDs. Devices using the M.2 (formerly NGFF) connector can differ in their connection to the chipset. Two common approaches used today are the M.2 PCIe variant, which uses PCIe connections, and M.2 SATA, which operates via a SATA controller commonly found on 2.5″ SSDs. We managed to bag an early engineering sample of an upcoming Kingston drive that uses the M.2 SATA approach. Let’s take a look at what it has to offer.

Geared toward servers and data centers, the Edge Boost Server 7mm SSD utilizes an enterprise-level LSI-SandForce controller to achieve strong read/write and IOPS speeds. The SATA 6 Gb/s interface is rated to achieve up to 560 MB/s sequential reads and 530 MB/s sequential writes (240GB model — other capacities vary). Random 4K read speeds are stated as 45,000 IOPS, with random 4K write speeds of 80,000 IOPS (240GB model — other capacities vary).
