For a storage reviewer, there is no better discovery than something that cuts the time of storage reviews as most can take a week or longer. We first spoke of this in 2010 when we reviewed the Vantec External Dock which didn’t quite meet our needs. This report examines the HighPoint 5322 Dual eSATA 6Gbps External Dock, along with their RocketRAID 2711 6Gbps RAID card and, to promote this gear as being a game changer just may be an understatement.

Back at ceBIT Germany 2013, SuperTalent was kind enough to provide an exclusive sample of their upcoming RC4 flash drive release and we conducted an impromptu review, discovering decent result for the form factor that it is. We were fortunate to bring that RC4 back to TSSDR and have had the opportunity to conduct a bit more detailed of an analysis. Not yet available for consumer purchase, we have to give you a heads up that this device is a release you might just want to watch for.
The sheer beauty of the SuperTalent USB 3.0 Express RC4 flash drive is that it is one of the few devices that is Microsoft Windows To Go certified and is expected to come with a trial of MS ‘Windows To Go’ on purchase. This means that you can plug the RC4 into any Windows machine and start right from the flash drive, running what is essentially a version of Windows 8. From there, you can then go to any other Windows system, boot the drive once again from the system bios and you are right back in your own OS environment once again.

Try to imagine what the ideal external hard drive docking station might look like. It should be compact, intuitive to use, and ideally be a relatively good looking piece of hardware. And it should be fast. At first glance the I-NA321U+ seems to have all that and more. The I-NA321U+ is a USB 3.0 compatible dual hard drive docking system with a few very handy features. Perhaps the most interesting of the value-added features is a one touch drive copy function. In this article, Benchmark Reviews will take a look at this relatively new dual drive docking station from ineo Technology, Inc.

The Travelstar 7K1000 from HGST is a speedy and silent HDD that should fit in most laptops (has a height of 9.5mm) and offers 1TB of storage at our disposal. The drive features Advanced Format and also best-in-class shock tolerance.

The Intel 335 Series is known as 'That Intel Drive with 20nm Flash', but it's so much more. The 180GB capacity size gives you comfort room with Windows 8 and does very well in our power test.

Solid State Drives (SSDs) auf Basis schneller Flashspeicher sind momentan sehr im Trend und bieten unter anderem hohe Geschwindigkeiten, geringe Leistungsaufnahmen und viele weitere Vorteile. Beim Preis pro Gigabyte können sie allerdings nicht mit konventionellen Magnetspeichern (Hard Disk Drives, kurz HDDs) mithalten. So kommen in entsprechenden Systemen oftmals Kombinationen aus SSD und HDD zum Einsatz, wobei erstere als primäres Systemlaufwerk dient und letztere als schlichtes Datengrab für große Datenmenge. Wir haben uns sechs aktuelle Modelle mit SATA3-Schnittstelle am Markt für unseren Review ausgepickt und ausführlich auf Herz und Nieren geprüft. Zum Einsatz kamen dabei die Hitachi Deskstar 7K4000 (4000 GB), die Seagate Barracuda 7200.14 (3000 GB), die Toshiba DT01ABA100 (1000 GB), die Toshiba DT01ACA100 (1000 GB), die Western Digital Caviar Black (4000 GB), sowie die Western Digital Caviar Green (2000 GB). Wir wünschen Ihnen viel Spaß beim Lesen des Artikels!

OCZ Technology have been at the forefront of Solid State designs now for many years. They released their Vertex 3 drives which featured the Sandforce 2281 controller back in 2011. This was a popular drive among the enthusiast audience as it offered excellent performance characteristics at a competitive price point. The Vertex 3.20 is a re-engineering of the original design, now incorporating 20nm Synchronous Multi Level Cell (MLC) NAND flash. OCZ’s goal is to deliver higher performance in 2013, while driving down the price.

By the time this report of the new Crucial M500 960GB 6Gbps SSD is published, Crucial will have succeeded in the most significant SSD release of 2013. Not only is a 1TB SSD finally available to the consumer, but also, Crucial guarantees M500 success with a price point that could create ‘price panic’ in retail SSD sales. They have gone further though. Without a premium, Crucial has included key enterprise features in the M500 that make the M500 hard to match.

Technology X will be reviewing the $399.99 priced 480GB version of the Crucial M500 family. It will be compelling to see how the SSD holds up with a new Marvell controller, if Crucial can deliver on their promises, and if ultimately the M500 name can live up to the hype, popularity, and reputation the M4 series delivered.
