Somewhere between the speed of Solid State Drive technology and the reliability of value-priced Hard Disk storage is the Seagate Barracuda XT. The industry's first SATA 6GBps HDD features 2TB of data storage capacity, and is also the first product to receive compliance with the third generation SATA controller interface. In this article, Benchmark Reviews tests the Seagate Barracuda XT hard drive against a cross section of competing storage products using the ASUS P7P55D Premium (Marvell 88SE9123) and Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD6 (Marvell 88SE912 motherboards, comparing the model ST32000641AS hard disk on the both SATA-6G controllers as well as Intel's P55/ICH10 SATA-3G chipset.

How does one explain a card like this? I know - above top of the line! Or Greater than. . .? I say this because SanDisk's new Compact Flash(CF) card line, Extreme Pro, with it's 16, 32, and 64 GB options, has more speed than we have need... for... sorry about the rhyme. I suppose I mean to say more speed than you could ever need, but of course that is not really true. The SanDisk Extreme Pro's specs out perform most professional cameras including the Canon 5D Mark II. We'll check out if all this speed is worth it, after the break.

Das ungesättigte Bedürfnis nach Solid State Disks führt dazu, dass Hersteller für diese Art von Speicher nur so aus dem Boden schießen. Von einigen dieser Hersteller hört(e) man schnell nichts mehr, andere haben sich auf diesem Gebiet bewiesen und schaffen es die Großen wie Intel oder Kingston unter Druck zu setzen. Denn am Ende entscheiden nicht häufig nur das Produkt, die Leistung und der Preis oder allein der Herstellername. So können wir nun von einem dieser Hersteller sprechen, der sich erst seit wenigen Jahren auf dem Markt tummelt und dort gehalten hat. Einer dieser Chips-Produzenten ist Mach Xtreme, welcher mit der MX DS Turbo eine interessante SandForce basierte SSD im Portfolio hat. Wie diese in der Praxis abschneidet, klärt der nachfolgende Testbericht.

After releasing the rugged Armor A30 model, Silicon Power went ahead and upgraded it with a new Armor A60 model, which has passed the military drop-test standards (MIL-STD 810G), including the specific height free fall test of 122cm. Additionally, the product is water resistant by supporting the IPX4 standard while the internal Toshiba MQ01ABB200 drive is equipped with a G-force sensor for protecting itself when large vibrations are detected or when it falls off the surface.

StarTech.com is a retailer that specialises in hard-to-find niche computing and electronics items built for businesses, but today we’ll be looking at an item of interest to any gamer or media consumer. It’s called the InfoSafe, and it’s an unusual proposition – a kind of high end hard drive enclosure that supports two 2.5″ SATA drives. As well as the dual layout, there is support for a number of configurations and advanced connectivity options. Let’s have a look at whether this premium enclosure is worth the extra dosh.

Vertex 460, another OCZ SSD which is priced a little bit lower than the previously reviewed Vector 150, features the same Toshiba 19nm Toggle-mode NAND, along with the lower-clocked Barefoot 3 M10 controller and 512MB of DDR3 1333 Micron RAM.

Not every flash drive can be fast, or can be pretty, or can be sturdy, big, small, capacious, easy to find, and discreet. No, some are just a little ugly. PNY’s Attache bears little of the elegance its name may be associated with, but it’s safe to say it does have a few things going for it.

The first thing that IOCELL wants you to know about the NetDISK 351UNE is that it is not a NAS. It is a network-direct-attached-storage (NDAS) device. It does not function as a server, and there are distinct benefits to that. For one: size, cost and complexity go way down. Two: it does not use TCP/IP to connect to your network, which eliminates all TCP/IP-based methods for hacking your data. Three: it's faster, since there's ess overhead to manage. Sometimes, less is more. Benchmark Reviews has tested several full-range NAS products in the last few months, now let's investigate what advantages a more tightly focused approach can provide.

As SSD manufacturers continually pump out new drives that push the performance ceilings in an attempt to gain the top performer crown, Kingston has quietly introduced their SandForce powered SSDNow V+200 line that they refer to as the "everyday business SSD". With solid performance and an economical price point, should this be your choice for your single or fleet of PC’s? Have a read to find out.
