SSD’s are finally getting a firm grip within the market, helped in part by dropping prices and increasing capacities. If you have been holding off on upgrading then perhaps today we can change your mind. We would go so far as to say that from our experience, adding an SSD as a boot drive to a system is one of the best upgrades you could make.
In early 2011 we prophesized the extremely successful SF-1200 SATA II controller wouldn't die off easily and we backed that up with a review of the new SanDisk Ultra just last week. At the time of writing the SanDisk Ultra 240GB costs 301 Dollars at Newegg, a good value for a product based on mature technology and high speed 3Xnm flash.
The Neutron series of SSDs introduce a new LAMD controller, so lets see how this shakes up a SandForce dominated market.
Kingston is not only the world leading memory vendor but also having the biggest piece of market share in term of shipment and volume. Besides memory and USB flash drive products, SSD is another upcoming hot product and today we are going to have a look on their improved SSD V+ drive; V+ 100 with enhanced garbage collection.
For years I've talked about RAID tuning and even gave some examples on a small scale. The LSI 9265-8i that we are looking at today takes the ability to optimize your RAID arrays to new levels and does so with a very easy to navigate user interface. The base controller with its dual-core ROC processor and 1GB DRAM cache has become the industry standard, but LSI didn't stop there. Add on packages like LSI's FastPath and CacheCade further enhance usability based on user need.
When our 9265-8i sample first arrived we were in the process of building a super computer based on the EVGA SR-2 dual Xeon enthusiast's board. At the time LSI was having issues with a handful of enthusiast class motherboards with the SR-2 being one of them. Since that time LSI and the motherboard makers have found and corrected several if not all of the issues. There was a time though when enthusiasts were pounding their heads against the wall trying to make everything mesh as it should.
Aujourd'hui sur PC Overware, petit test du Crucial M4 en version 256 Go, il date un peu mais c'est toujours un test en plus made in PCO !

Entered at the Small and Medium Business platform, the Synology DS1010+ presents a huge storage potential with five drive bay slots each capable of handling up to a 2TB 3.5”/2.5” SATA hard drive; fast file-sharing transfers; and ease of use with the latest version with the Synology GUI – DiskStation Manager 2.3.
Around Computex we started hearing about SandForce SF-1500 controllers being paired with SAS interfaces. At first we didn't think these products would live to see the light of day since the SATA versions were already very fast. Well, we were wrong and the first SandForce SF-1500 SAS drive is on my desk right now in engineering sample form.
One problem plaguing those that want an SSD at the moment is that there really isn't an option for those without deep pockets. There's no way getting round it, SSDs are expensive. However, you can help alleviate this wallet pressure by getting one without too much storage space. Today we look at one of the smallest available SSD sizes, a 64GB from Patriot known as the Torqx TRB. Let's see how it holds up against the bigger boys.
LaCie has released version 2 of their NAS line and sent us the 2Big Network 2 2TB version. With unlimited options for connectivity how will it stand up to our review?
