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.

It offers the punch of the X-25m in 1/8th of the size and Intel is gambling that this is going to add a whole new dimension to notebook configurations. First up to bat with the 310 will be new Lenovo Thinkpads destined for market in 2011 but don't think other oems aren't far behind.

The tools in my toolbox are just as important as the IT skills I have learned over the years. After all, what good is the knowledge to accomplish something without the means to do so? That is why my arsenal of tools in my office is as important to me and my customers as is paint and a canvas to a painter. When companies like StarTech start offering tools that can accomplish more than one task and do them all well, it not only saves me time, it reduces the amount of "crap" I have all over the place. StarTech has already impressed me with their S354UFER, let's see if they can keep me tuned in with their SATDOCK22RE.

Today we have an interesting brand landed on our doorstep; Icy Dock which a leading vendor for storage enclosures. If normal external storage is not able to fulfill your need and NAS is totally out of budget then you should probably take a look on MB662USEB-2S. This enclosure is a dual-bay 3.5" external HDD enclosure which supports RAID 0, 1 and JB

The RevoDrive is a single expansion card that is effectively two SSDs (each with its own controller) coupled to an onboard RAID controller (configured in RAID 0) that uses a PCI Express interface to providing blazing fast transfer rates. The sample provided for review is a 50GB unit rated for quite impressive read speeds of up to 540MB/s and write speeds of up to 450MB/s.

One of the biggest surprises we learned at CES 2011 was that Kingston had joined Team SandForce for the SF-2000 Series of products. After CES we learned from Digitimes that Kingston was also moving to acquire a larger stake of controller manufacturer JMicron at the same time. Kingston has been gaining attention for their solid state drive products for the last two years and slowly gaining market share. The recent maneuvers will allow Kingston to continue building upon their successes and become an even larger player in the global solid state drive market.

Es ist also soweit, nach vielen Ankündigungen und dem üblichen Marketing-Rummel fließen endlich auch bezahlbare USB 3.0 Sticks in den Markt der bezahlbaren Geräte ein, so daß wir es uns nicht nehmen ließen, drei interessante Sticks zu testen. Voraussetzung für das Erreichen der anvisierten Übertragungsraten ist ein Mainboard mit entsprechendem USB 3.0 Anschluss oder eine Zusatzkarte. Doch selbst dann klaffen Theorie und Wirklichkeit immer noch ziemlich weit auseinander, wie wir noch sehen werden.
Unsere Testobjekte stammen aus den laufenden Produktionen von Adata, Kingston und Mach Extreme, also bis auf Mach Xtreme alles altbekannte Speicherspezialisten. Wobei wir erst kürzlich eine SSD von Mach Xtreme begutachten durften, die sich sehr ansprechend in Szene setzen konnte. Die Sticks wurden teilweise im Internet gekauft, teilweise aus der laufenden Serie heraus von Herstellern geordert, so daß wir einen guten Überblick darüber erhielten, was beim Händler tatsächlich im Regal liegt. Kurz und gut, wie sich die Sticks im rauhen Testalltag bewährt haben, könnt ihr wie immer in unserem ausführlichen Praxis-Review nachlesen, dazu wünschen wir wieder viel Vergnügen...

For years notebook users looking for desktop like performance were forced to purchase notebooks that used desktop components like processors and hard drives. The notebook main board and processor have evolved into components that rival their desktop counterparts, but the 2.5" platter based notebook hard drive has taken more time to reach the same speeds when compared to their desktop equivalent.

Today we are going to look at one of Startech’s external hard drive enclosures which has room for four 3.5″ SATA hard drives in a RAID configuration. This is designed specifically for corporate users so it uses the royalty free eSATA interface exclusively rather than USB3.0. As numerous corporate users only upgrade their PC systems every few years, Startech includes an eSATA expansion card with the InfoSafe which can be installed into a PCI slot.

Just about two months ago, we have completed a review of Icy Dock MB662USEB-2S; an incredible dual-bay FireWire 400/800 eSATA & USB Raid 3.5" HDD enclosure and today we are going to bring you another existing product from Icy Dock; MB994SP-4S. Icy Dock MB994SP-4S is not an external HDD enclosure but an internal multi-bay HDD RAID cage; able to support up to four 2.5" SATA/SSD/SAS HDDs.
