What does OCZ's 20nm flash IC die shrink bring to the table? Let's put it to the benchmarks.
Today we are looking at the latest high speed Solid State drive from Sandisk, the Extreme II. This follows on from our review of the Ultra Plus 256GB Solid State drive which we reviewed back in March this year. The previous generation SanDisk Extreme adopted a SandForce controller however the latest Extreme II model has the Marvell 88SS9187 controller onboard. Is this a drive you should be shortlisting for a new system build this year?
Seagate takes storage capacity to the max with the Desktop HDD .15, but does it have the performance for the digital age?
Perhaps the most respect an SSD review site can gain is to be trusted to report on SSDs that carry with them a great deal of confidentiality and secrecy in their purpose and design. Being consistently chosen as the first and one of the very limited evaluators is icing on the cake. Such is the case between The SSD Review and TCS and has been for some time as we have previously published reports for the TCS Galatea and TCS Proteus SSDs. Our report today is rather special as we are looking at an entirely new design from TCS, one that has been aptly named the TCS BGADrive. The TCS BGADrive was released in January 2013 and one can't imagine the work it takes to get from a simple conversation to final hands-on analysis and report of such equipment. This has been months in the making and much more cooperation than we have ever seen for a review prior. As much as cannot be spoken of or shown, we think our end report will grab and hold your attention as the TCS BGADrive is definitely something we don't get our hands on every day.
Two things stand out when we speak of TCS products, and these are MIL-STD-810 and the fact that these SSDs are created and trusted for 'mission critical applications'. Defined, a mission critical application is one in which the failure of the device could result, directly or indirectly, in personal injury or death. These applications demand equipment that can stand well above the norm in pressure, shock and weather conditions, and that is what MIL-STD-810 is intended for.
With the gaining popularity of SSDs, it was only a matter of time until we started seeing large capacity external SSDs hit the street and the time has come. Whereas less than seven days ago we had never had an external SSD of 512GB capacity, today I have three 512GB and a 1TB external SSDs sitting in front of me as I type. As an added benefit, we can state right off that these external SSDs are probably the most powerful manufactured to date and surprisingly, all can be thrown in your pocket. Today we are going to rip apart and test the new Monster Digital OverDrive 3.0 External SSD seen here. Monster has just releasedhttp://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=tecx-20&l=ur2&o=1 this SSD in several capacities, ranging from 128GB all the way to 1TB. Regardless of capacity, the form factor is the same and this SSD is smaller and thinner than just about any cell phone at 60mm x 126mm x 8mm.
Storage technology is moving forward at very fast rate, not only we are able to have more speed and more capacity, but we also get smaller size, and at a lower price. Lexar is doing all of that, and here at Myce I was fortunate to review the Lexar Triton Jumpdrive, a flash drive that for me is still the best drive that you can buy. Okay, it might not be the fastest drive on the market, but is still one of the fastest flash drives and it has outstanding build quality.Now I am taking a closer look at the S23 Jumpdrive, and this time Lexar is providing a more affordable USB3 flash drive, that not only continues to have very good performance, of up to 100MB/Sec read and 55MB/Sec write, but also continues to have a very stylish look. The Lexar S23 Jumpdrive comes in four colours – an 8GB in orange, a 16GB in teal, a 32Gb in green and a 64GB in purple. All models are covered by a three year Warranty.
Synology release a wide range of NAS systems every year, and today we are looking at the DS 1813+ which has been designed from the ground up to cope with the demanding enterprise environment.
The DS1813+ is built for speed, it incorporates a dual core processor and can scale with multiple DX512 expansion bays to support a total of 72GB of storage.
Over the last few years I have had the much appreciated pleasure of testing many NAS appliances from Thecus, Qnap and recently Asustor. All of these aforementioned companies have been around the block a time or two and have made a name for themselves. One company that doesn’t readily come to mind is Infortrend, but their aim is to change that.
Haswell has arrived. This is big news to storage enthusiasts like myself. Haswell brings with it 4 more native Intel SATA III Ports, giving us a total of 6 powerful Intel SATA III Ports.
OCZ arbeitet gerade daran 20 nm NAND-Flash-Technologie im großen Stil in das eigene Produktportfolio zu integrieren. Ziel ist es bereits frühzeitig auf Alternativen zu den bewährten 25 nm MLC-Zellen zu setzen, um langfristig stabile Preise und eine lückenlose Verfügbarkeit der eigenen Produktpalette gewährleisten zu können. Nachdem man mit der Vertex 3.20 bereits eine aufpolierte Variante der erfolgreichen Vertex 3 Serie präsentiert hat, folgt nun ein Refresh der Vertex 4: Vertex 450. Die neue Vertex 450 basiert auf 20 nm Chips von Micron bzw. IMFT (statt 25 nm) sowie einem Barefoot 3 M10 Controller, statt des Everest 2. Das Drive mit 256 Bit AES-Verschlüsselung hat sich auch rein äußerlich geändert, denn statt einem 9,5 mm hohen Kunststoffgehäuse kommt nun ein nur noch 7 mm schlankes Aluminiumchassis zum Einsatz und soll für eine bessere Wärmeleitung sorgen. Wir haben uns die OCZ Vertex 450 mit 256 GB für einen ausführlichen Praxistest eingeladen, um die Kombination au s Barefoot 3 M10 und 20 nm NAND-Speicher auf Herz und Nieren prüfen zu können. Wie immer wünschen wir Ihnen viel Spaß beim Lesen des Artikels!
