SSD (Solid State Drive) units are storage devices that store files and programs just like hard disk drives, but use flash memory chips to store data, instead of storing data on a magnetic disc. Because data is stored electronically rather than magnetically, SSDs are way faster than hard disk drives for two reasons. First, no conversion between magnetic information into electronic information is needed. And second, there are no mechanical parts, so data is readily available, while on hard disk drives you need to wait until the heads move to the area where data is stored, which takes some time. In this short tutorial we will show you how SSD units look like inside and what are their main components.

With so many portable hard drives currently on the market, competition is fierce and consumers are always on the lookout for the best bang for the buck. The Xigmatek Lighter is a stylish, low cost option that easily stands out. Not only does it look like an actual lighter, it's not much larger than one and provides an impressive 60GB of storage that fits in your pocket.

Mobile Datenträger gibt es in verschiedenen Größen, Formen, Kapazitäten und vor allem auch Preisen. Während wir uns bei unseren letzten Tests eher USB-Sticks im höheren Preissegment angeschaut haben, folgt nun ein Test eines recht günstigen Datenträgers. Der G2 gehört zur DataTraveler-Serie von Kingston und ist in Kapazitäten von 2 GB bis 32 GB erhältlich. In unserem heutigen Test haben wir das mittlere Exemplar, den 8 GB großen DataTraveler G2. Wir er sich schlägt, erfahrt ihr auf den folgenden Seiten.

We all know that two is better than one, we have dual core CPUs, dual GPU video cards, and if you really want to get the most out of your storage, a set of SSDs in RAID will boost your performance noticeably. We tested 6 different RAID stripe sizes and 3 different RAID configs in 4 different storage benchmarks, some synthetic, others real world operations. More than 1200 benchmarks results summed up in a few charts.

Backing up and making sure your data is extra safe, is something people have been doing since the first digital storage device failed and someone realised they'd just lost a few bits of information. However, now with people having thousands of photographs, extensive movie and music collections, backup storage has never been more pertinent.

The CRU-DataPort SecureDock is definitely a unique product. This is not your average external hard drive enclosure! Offering both USB 2.0 and eSATA connectivity, the SecureDock manages to do what it says and does so extremely quickly as our testing shows - especially if you use the eSATA interface. In terms of encryption, the device is very easy to use. There is no software to install and everything is seamless. The lock-and-key system and mini-USB style security keys work well as well. My favorite feature has to be the fact that you can use any SATA hard drive with the SecureDock; you're not limited to just the 500 GB unit that comes with it.

Not to go on and on about the web interface- as much as I dislike it, I digress. The N0503 is packed with features, and it is flexible. The N0503 is fast- there is no doubt about that and even in RAID 5 it manages to sustain some excellent numbers. For a three drive NAS, or five 2.5″ drive NAS the N0503 happens to fall into the more expensive side of things, but alas is the nature of performance hardware.

Cloning hard drives with the USB 2.0 interface is slower than I would like, but the ease with which I'm able to insert and remove multiple drives more than makes up for this. I find the Thermaltake BlacX Duet dual hard drive docking station to be so useful that when I upgrade my system, SATA port multiplication will be one of the must have features of my next motherboard.

Mit der Icy Box IB-250 hat RaidSonic ein extrem interessantes externes HDD-Gehäuse im Programm, es beherrscht nämlich bereits USB 3.0.

Last month Micron raised the performance bar for SSDs by announcing its RealSSD C300 SSD. Today, the company announced that the drive would be coming to the retail market next month under the Crucial product name. Legit Reviews got to personally see what the retail drive will look like today and even got a demo that we recorded to show you!
