The WD My Passport drives have been around for quite sometime now. They provide fast and easy backup and storage whether you are on the go or at your desk. Just about two years ago we took a look at the My Passport Essential SE 1TB drive. WD is back with a new My Passport drive that offers a new enclosure design, backup and encryption software, 5 color choices and capacities up to 2TB. The My Passport Essential SE has been a fixture in my mobile computing setup, but will it soon be replaced by the newer My Passport? Read on as we take a look...

SSDs sind heutzutage die erste Wahl für eine hohe Performance auf kleinstem Raum.
Die SSD Preise sind bereits kräftig gepurzelt, so daß mittlerweile selbst 256GB oder 512GB bezahlbar werden.
Wer allerdings sein Notebook mit einem größeren Laufwerk wie z.B. 1TB ausrüsten möchte, wird preislich eher zu einer konventionellen Festplatte greifen.
Und selbst für Desktop PCs oder Server kann sich eine 2,5-Zoll Festplatte lohnen, wie uns Seagate mit der schnellen Seagate Constellation.2 1TB 7200 U/Min Enterprise Festplatte zeigt.
Heute haben wir uns die Seagate ST91000640NS angesehen und mit der aktuellsten Firmware SN02 getestet.
Leider konnten wir dabei nicht prüfen, ob die Festplatte wirklich 1,4 Millionen Stunden fehlerfrei läuft, denn die MTBF Zuverlässigkeit entspricht damit bei 24/7 ungefähr 160 Jahre.
Testen wir deshalb erstmal die Performance der Seagate Constellation.2 1TB SATA3 Festplatte und vergleichen die Ergebnisse mit den bisher getesteten Solid State Drives und Festplatten.

In this day and age, storage is everything, especially when you're on the go, and there's generally speaking, two ways of having it in your life when mobile. The first is utilising the cloud and the second is via USB storage. Patriot's newest USB flash drive is aimed at users needing both large capacities and high performance and is branded under the Supersonic Magnum branding, though not for the faint hearted, as the range starts from around £70.

LSI SandForce announced the new B02 stepping several months ago. Now companies are starting to build hardware. SF-2281VB2 uses technologies introduced by LSI to reduce the power consumption of the successful 2281 SATA III controller. The result is the same SF-2281 performance, but now paired with ultra low power consumption.

At the end of last year we published a review of the Western Digital WD RE 4TB, the first 4TB hard disk from Western Digital. This disk from the WD RE series was aimed at professional use for servers and storage solutions, and its sticker price reflected this. The consumer version has now come out, called the Caviar Black 4 TB.

The Vector is one of the latest products from OCZ, sports an in-house Indilinx Barefoot 3 NAND controller and has succeeded to surpass most of the SSDs we have tested so far. The Vector is available in 128GB, 256 and 512GB capacities and is also bundled with Acronis disk cloning software, which is very useful when transferring data from one drive to another.

While our performance comparison was limited to only one other drive of the same capacity, that comparison drive is probably is on top of the mSATA 30GB heap being an Intel 525 Series drive. That makes is a very nice yardstick to measure up the bantam Atlas Deluxe drive. In that regard, the Atlas measures up very well with performance numbers that are very robust for a drive of this size. The maximum performance attained is 555MB/s sequential reads and 379MB/s sequential writes. This is with compressible data and, like all SandForce drives, things change a bit when incompressible data is thrown at it. Max performance drops to 200MB/s reads and 40 MB/s writes which is on par with Intel 30GB drive as it features the same controller...

Oggi vi presenteremo una delle pennette USB 3.0 più veloci al mondo, stiamo parlando della Kingston HyperX Predator. Dotata dello standard USB 3.0 questa pen-drive assicura prestazioni di primo livello capace di eguagliare le performance di un SSD SATA 2. Grazie alla capacità di ben 512GB permetterà di archiviare grandi quantità di dati in un batter d’occhio, rendendola di fatto un SSD in miniatura. Andiamo a vedere nel dettaglio come si comporta nei nostri test sintetici e infine la nostra valutazione finale.

Adaptec by PMC's Series 7 controllers look to redefine the capabilities of the modern RAID controller. With a focus on a high native port count and new SAS HD cabling, the Series 7 controllers deliver an amazing 6.44 GB/s of sequential speed in tandem with 450,000 random IOPS.

In today’s fast paced technology driven world being connected is not just a luxury it is a necessity, but even as more and more people become connected via Smart phones, tablets, laptops and PCs there is a disconnect when it comes to sharing media through all the connected devices, whether at home or on the go. ADATA is looking to change this though, with their DashDrive Air AE400, which is a wireless storage reader and power bank.
