The product we are looking at here, is the QNAP TS-269L NAS. It's a 2-bay NAS box with a 1.86GHz Intel Atom processor and 1GB RAM. There are good opportunities for connecting external devices via 2x USB3.0, 3x USB 2.0, 2x USB 3.0 and 1x eSATA. The NAS box also uses their latest firmware, which among other things allows you to watch and record TV directly through a tuner.

“ Kurz vor unserem Urlaub wollen wir die Gelegenheit nutzen und euch noch eine SSD vorstellen, die ausnahmsweise mal nicht aus der Kategorie High End stammt, sondern eher der gehobenen Mittelklasse zuzuordnen wäre: die neue SanDisk Ultra Plus mit 256 GB Kapazität, einer seit November 2012 gängigen Größe für unsere SSD Tests.
Völlig überraschend verfügt auch diese SSD über einen Controller aus den bewährten Regalen von Marvell, diesmal allerdings mit der Bezeichnung SS889175. Dieser Controller darf mit Verlaub als abgespeckte Version des 88SS9174 Controllers bezeichnet werden, den wir ja hinlänglich von der Intel 510 SSD Serie kennen. Das deutlichste Unterscheidungsmerkmal stellt zweifellos die 4-kanalige Anbindung dar, wohingegen der 88SS9174 Controller über eine 8-kanalige Anbindung verfügt. Die verfügbaren Kapazitäten der SanDisk Ultra Plus Serie beschränken sich derzeit auf die Modelle mit 64,128 und 256 GB Kapazität. Die Random 4K Lesewerte werden mit 82000 IOPS angegeben, die Random 4K Schreibwerte mit 39000 IOPS. Für die sequentiellen Transferleistungen in MB bedeutet dies in etwa 530 MB/s fürs Lesen und ca. 445 MB/s fürs Schreiben.
Noch interessanter offenbart sich das aktuelle Preisgefüge, denn die 256 GB Variante wird im Netz derzeit für ca. 145 € avisiert, was wir angesichts der theoretischen Leistung für mehr als adäquat erachten, wenn es denn im Praxistest bei den versprochenen Transfer Resultaten bleibt. Genau das haben wir sehr genau überprüft, darum wünschen wir euch jetzt wieder spannende Unterhaltung beim Lesen unseres neuesten SSD Reviews..."

It's been quite a long time since we're published a RAID report. Today is Seagate's big day with four product categories emerging from under the covers. We ended up with a pair for 600 SSD 240GB drives so it was a perfect opportunity to try them in RAID 0.

With USB 3.0 becoming more of a standard these days many companies are coming out with new USB 3.0 flash drives. These new flash drives not only hold more data but they can transfer that data a hell of alot faster. No one wants to wait around for their files to transfer. ADATA has a new USB 3.0 flash drive that looks just as good as it performs. The DashDrive Elite UE700 has a brushed aluminum finish and features read and write speeds of up to 190 MB/s and 50 MB/s respectively. Let’s see what this drive is all about!

With the advent of affordable solid state drives and the SuperSpeed USB 3.0 interface, we have seen a drastic increase in the size and speed of flash drives. Patriot is one of the companies leading the way on both speed and size with its Supersonic Magnum line, which we will be looking at today. The Supersonic Magnum flash drive is 256GB flash drive with a read speed of 250MB/s and a write speed of 160MB/s. In this review Benchmark Reviews will be verifying the speed of the Patriot Magnum Supersonic and compare it to two SATA-II SSD's.

The PQI Air Drive is a portable storage device the size of a credit card (and a bit thicker) that enables up to five people to connect and stream live music, movies or photos from the drive to their portable devices simultaneously. Unlike traditional storage devices that uses on fixed memory to store your files, the Air Drives only source of storage is an SD card (or in our case microSD card) up to a maximum capacity of 32GB and can be purchased with different capacity cards included.

Up for review today I have the Kingston DataTraveler Generation 3 or G3 USB flash drive. The drive is 32gb capacity and it’s one of the latest from Kingston. The G3 is very small and lightweight making it portable and easy to take with you. It’s a flash drive made for storage, how exciting is it really? Kingston also has an optional suite of software you can download for the G3 making it a bit more usable and user friendly that features things like a web browser, photo viewer and more. The drive isn’t one of the fastest out there but it’s not one of the slowest either, it falls about the middle in terms of performance really. Read on….

Torniamo a parlare di SSD, componente ormai indispensabile per chi si accinge ad acquistare un nuovo PC, o per chi vuole dare semplicemente nuova linfa vitale al proprio computer. Il modello che quest'oggi analizzeremo non è di certo l'ultimo arrivato, infatti è stato presentato poco meno di un anno fa, ma ancora oggi riesce ad avere un discreto successo grazie al buon rapporto prestazioni / prezzo e all'hardware adottato. In particolare, questa volta abbiamo tra le mani il Plextor M5S dalla capacità di 128GB.

In 1953, engineers in IBM’s California-based laboratory invented the very first hard drive. Since that first disk drive, technological advances have been made at an astonishing rate, with data capacity increasing and size and price decreasing exponentially, year on year. 60 years on, the hard drives of today are unrecognizable from the first models, which took up an entire room. Hard drives today are measured in terms of gigabytes and terabytes, rather than megabytes-an amount of data that would have been almost unimaginable in the early history of computers. Here we take a look back at the evolution of the hard drive as it grew from 5MB to 4TB.

Let's make it clear right from the start and not mix words when we say that the Intel DC S3500 is an enterprise/data center SSD through and through. Availability and pricing of the DC S3500 found early on the morning of release, however, is definitely going to tempt more than just the data center crowd. After all, the Intel DC S3500 has speeds above 500MB/s, 75K IOPS, AES 256-bit encryption, power loss data protection, advanced error correction, availability in 5mm and 7mm form factors, multiple capacities, up to 450TBW and a five year warranty. Compound this with great pricing and a controller that many have been just itching to see in a consumer SSD for some time and Intel just may have unexpectedly stumbled on a new crowd of buyers.
