The picture isn't crystal clear just yet, but at CES we cleared part of the cloud surrounding companies 2011 solid state drive products. At the very least we will see seven new SSD controllers enter the market in 2011. Of those, four are directed at the consumer market and three are enterprise designs. Only time will tell which consumer controllers get converted to enterprise models and vice versa. Of the seven overall, we saw working samples of three and they were all twice as fast as the Crucial RealSSD C300 128GB drive.
Samsung has released their 470 Series line of SSDs which feature Samsung components exclusively. This is a refreshing change from the legions of SandForce clones out there but can they compete with the best drives we've tested and how will they stand up over time? We'll answer one and unveil our plan for the other in our review.
The Patriot Extreme Performance Xporter XT Rage is a USB Flash Drive with both performance and functionality. Featuring an innovative Quad Channel configuration, data is intelligently managed and transferred simultaneously to 4 NAND chips resulting in vastly enhanced performance, particularly write speeds: Rage improves on traditional USB 2.0 Flash Drives to offer up to 27MB/s read and 25MB/s write transfer speeds. Read on to see how it performs!
Kingston have quite a few product ranges in their SSD catalogue including the V+ series which come in a variety of sizes, including the 64GB version that we're looking at today. According to every type of branding and marketing they are classed as a performance upgrade kit. Products that appear in Kingston's catalogue include SSDs aimed at servers, corporate environments and of course consumers and remember Kingston also make memory as well.
When it comes to digital storage, you can't have enough. Whether you download a lot of music, take a lot of pictures, or are a file hoarder, you know the GB's can add up. Now-a-days, companies are offering large drives, and don't make you sacrifice speed to do so. Seagate was one of the first to break the 1TB drive mark, and has always been on the cutting edge of drive size and performance. Seagate has sent us their latest Barracuda Low Power 2TB Hard Drive to see if it stacks up to the competition.
One of the most frequent questions we receive with respect to SSD performance is whether the SSD can perform better than a RAID 0 configuration. We have never seen a single SATA 2.0 SSD perform better than any combinations of SSDs in RAID 0, at least not until we started testing the RunCore Pro V and ran a side by side comparison in Vantage HDD Suite. This review is going to examine one of the last solid state drives we received in 2010, the RunCore ProV 240GB SSD and before we started lets have everybody sit down and fasten our seatbelts shall we?You just might think we saved one of the best reviews until last because of our timing. The test results shown by the RunCore ProV 240GB SSD were such a shock that we elected to do leave the review for the New Year in order to give it the attention it deserves. Not only did it sail past all other single SSDs we have previously tested but, it also exceeded the Vantage HDD Suite results of two brand new Samsung 470 Series 256GB SSDs we had tested in RAID 0.
At first glance a lot of people may not appreciate the usefulness of a hard drive dock, but when you have to access a friend or relatives drive to recover data they are a welcome piece of equipment. Thanks to the latest update to Thermaltake’s BlacX line, the BlacX 5G now utilizes USB 3.0 making it not only handy but fast as well.
die Extrememory XLR8 Plus ist eine SSD mit Sandforce-Controller. Im Test beweist das Modell seine Stärken und holte sich in der Marktübersicht 02/2011 den zweiten Platz plus Spar-Tipp. Diesen müssen wir im heutigen Einzeltest jedoch wieder aberkennen. PC Games Hardware prüft im Kurztest nach.
It's been quite some time since we've published a RAID Report, but don't think we forgot about the users looking to get the most out of their systems. SandForce has produced a really good SSD controller that is very resistant to "SSD Fragmentation". The core product of the consumer SandForce SF-1200 is the enterprise SF-1500 controller. Enterprise customers almost always design and use RAID for redundancy in their servers, but we have still yet to receive a hardware RAID solution that is able to pass along the TRIM command.
The Patriot Memory Extreme Performance Xporter XT Rage is a USB Flash Drive featuring an innovative Quad Channel configuration; data is intelligently managed and transferred simultaneously to 4 NAND chips resulting in vastly enhanced performance, mostly reflected in the write speeds. The Flash Drive comes in 8, 16, 32, 64Gb flavours.
