Western Digitial released the WD TV Live Hub media center last week and we have spent some time using this Full-HD 1080p media player that has a 1TB built-in network hard drive. This media player lets you stream HD video, music and photos from the on-board drive to any DLNA/UPnP-compatible TV or multimedia device in your home or office. This media player might just be the most robust on the market today! Read on to see what we think!

Professionals, enthusiasts, overclockers and hardcore gamers all have but one thing in common, the need for speed and by speed i mean the best possible performance parts for their systems. Now as far back as i can remember CPUs, memory modules and graphics cards have always been the three leading hardware parts one would upgrade to get the best bang for the buck but lately with the price drops in SSDs more and more people switch to such RAID configurations with two or more units. So naturally we decided to do our part and show people what the gains are when you pair two of the latest and best selling SATA/SAS 6Gb/s PCI-Express controllers by both LSI and Areca (9265-8i/ ARC-1882) with a total of 8 Kingston HyperX 120GB SSDs.

Ce jour, nous testons un SSD que très peu d'entre nous achèterons, car clairement ce dernier se destine à des usages autres que les nôtres. Mais voilà, impossible de résister à l'envie de bencher un engin qui est annoncé pour 1800 Mo/sec. Alors place au OCZ Revodrive 350, un module PCI-E de pas moins de 480 Go...

If you're in the market for a uniquely small external storage solution, MDSSD has you covered with its speedy mSATA USB 3.0 enclosure.

LSI’s new PCIe 3.0 HBA and MegaRAID offerings promise oodles of extra performance above and beyond the limitations imposed by PCIe 2.0. While the new Gen3 MegaRAID solutions are still a ways out, we happen to have a Gen3 HBA here. This particular 9207-8i is destined for our enterprise evaluation system, but since it’s a new product and all, we thought we’d hook up some SSDs and see if performance is really better as a result. Can we break the 3GB/s limit of the PCIe 2 LSI 9211? Can we get some great scaling off of eight Crucial M4 256GBs on 000F firmware?

The Phison S10 controller recently gained quite a bit of popularity in the SSD market. 2 months ago, we have reviewed the Patriot Ignite 480GB with the same controller. How will the Kingston version -- with high endurance Toshiba A19 ICs and a super generous bundle -- compare?

Fast forward five months after the initial launch of the 840 EVO and Samsung is now launching the Samsung 840 EVO mSATA SSD. I expected Samsung to introduce a 120GB, 240GB, and 500GB mSATA 840 EVO, but what I didn’t expect was a 1TB edition as well. Whereas the 120GB, 250GB, and 500GB 840 EVOs used four NAND packages or less, the...

Today we are taking a look at another solid state drive from Mushkin. This one comes from their Reactor line and is the 512GB version. In the past Mushkin primarily used SandForce controllers with their solid state drives, but this time they have gone with Silicon Motion’s SM2246EN controller. This controller from what we’ve seen is very solid and performs without issue. They have teamed this controller with Micron’s 16nm MLC NAND. This combination gives the 512GB version of the drive a sequential read speed of 560 MB/s and sequential write speed of 460 MB/s with 71K IOPS read and 75K IOPS write. Let’s see what this drive can do.

Corsair recently announced new capacities for both the Series 3 and Force GT lines of their SSD family making them the easy winner in capacity selection for any single SSD series choice that we know of. Shortly after that announcement, a Corsair Force GT SATA 3 240GB SSD arrived at the office and we couldn’t resist the chance to throw it on the bench and see the numbers this GT could push. From the looks of it at least, the GT is on fire!

Bei der Western Digital Caviar Green WD10EACS handelt es sich um eine beliebte und preiswerte Festplatte mit einem Terabyte Speicherplatz, doch leider gibt es ein Problem, welches der Hersteller selbst verschuldet hat: Seit Monaten sind zwei Versionen der Festplatte in Umlauf, die sich beide einen identischen Produktnamen teilen, technisch jedoch gravierende Unterschiede aufweisen.
Und dann gibt es noch die Western Digital Caviar Green WD10EADS mit einem "D", welche doppelt soviel Cache besitzt. Wie groß sind die Leistungsunterschiede? Wie kann man die einzelnen Modelle unterscheiden? Und welche Festplatte bietet den besten Gegenwert? Wir haben alle drei Varianten getestet und bringen Licht ins Chaos.
