NGFF stands for ‘Next Generation Form Factor’ and was a working name for the new generation of MPCIe solid state drives, now affectionately known as M.2 SSDs. While many imagined the M.2 to be industry standardization for mSATA and similar small SSDs today seen in ultrabooks, a closer look at MPCIe demonstrates that unbelievable performance will soon be seen in a MPCIe design even smaller than mSATA. Having sat with just about every SSD manufacturer at countless tech events this year alone, I can relate that initial predictions of 500MB/s performance for M.2 drives have now grown to unbelievable speeds of 1800MB/s.

The item that we have for review today is one of the smallest and lightest external hard drives available, the ADATA DashDrive Elite HE720. Inside its attractive brushed steel skin lies 500GB of storage, accessible via a fast USB 3.0 powered connection. With a size and weight less than most smartphones, the DashDrive Elite easily fits in your pocket or travel bag and with only one cable to worry with, you're not going to be tied to a socket either.

ADATA are renowned for their DRAM modules, so lets see how their S510 SSD line up fairs against the competition.

L'Universal Serial Bus, plus connu sous le nom d'USB, ne vous est sûrement pas inconnu. C'est avec cette norme qu'ont vu naître les supports les plus pratiques depuis maintenant plusieurs années : les clés USB. La norme a évolué, après l'USB 1.0 puis 1.1 est arrivé l'USB 2.0 et les capacités évoluant toujours vers plus c'est désormais l'USB 3.0 pour le grand public qui a débarqué en 2010. Et c'est justement lui qui nous intéresse ici puisque nous nous sommes procurés différents produits exploitants cette norme. Faut-il craquer pour de l'USB 3.0 ? Munis de périphériques ADATA, nous allons tenter de répondre à la question et voir si l'USB 2.0 appartient vraiment au passé.

Adaptec releases their new Series 7 family of RAID controllers. We take a look at them in this preview.

The topic of RAID has come up again here at TechwareLabs with the Adaptec ASR 6805E RAID card taken for a spin. We compare the Adaptec card against a single Western Digital hard drive connected to the motherboard, and Two/Four Western Digital drives in a stripe using both the 6805E and on-motherboard RAID.

Adaptec by PMC's Series 7 controllers look to redefine the capabilities of the modern RAID controller. With a focus on a high native port count and new SAS HD cabling, the Series 7 controllers deliver an amazing 6.44 GB/s of sequential speed in tandem with 450,000 random IOPS.

This review is of the 6805TQ RAID adapter which has the newest feature of FAST maxCache 2.0 which uses an SSD to cache out the data that in order for the data to be Written/Read to the RAID volume at a must fast speed than just HDD heads can seek to Read/Write the data.

When we first caught wind of the Adaptec Series 7 RAID adapters late last year, we were itching for the chance to get it in our test bench. But, in order to do the review justice, we needed SSDs. We needed a LOT of SSDs. We needed 24 SSDs. Unfortunately, sampling even 4 or 8 SSDs at one time is often difficult. That is why we jumped at the chance to test out the Adaptec ASR-72405 with 24 x SMART Optimus 200GB SAS SSDs.

TechwareLabs takes a look at the ARAID 2200-GP which promises to be the next best friend of small businesses and serious home computing. The 2200-GP packs hardware RAID 1 into a simple plug and play package that fits into two 5.25" bays. We show you why the 2200-GP is a device no small business should be without considering its low price, excellent performance, and no non-sense backup. Find out if our test system survives us yanking a drive out in real time and then shoving it back in. Does the 2200-GP crash or continue without missing a beat?
