Quand nous le pourrons, nous vous proposerons maintenant des tests en RAID 0 des SSD que nous avons, car le Z77 gère maintenant le TRIM. On commence ce jour avec les M5 Pro Xtreme de Plextor dans une Shunk Size de 128 Ko.

Icy Dock shipped us a very high quality 5-in-3 5.25" bay adapter that looks amazing and is very functional.

Plextor, vor einigen Jahren vor allem durch optische Laufwerke bekannt geworden, hat sich mittlerweile auch im Bereich Storage bzw. Solid State Drives einen Namen gemacht und mischt die Branche regelmäßig mit hochwertigen Produkten auf. Bei der jüngsten SSD-Familie, der M5 Pro, setzt man auf eine Kombination von 19 nm Toshiba-NAND-Flashspeicher und Controller-Technologie aus dem Hause Marvell. Verglichen mit den zahlreichen SandForce-basierten Drives am Markt, die sich oft nur um wenige Zehntel in der Performance unterscheiden, hat Plextor damit die Möglichkeit massiv auf die Firmware einzuwirken und eigene Ideen umzusetzen. Wie erfolgreich man bei der Firmware-Entwicklung für den Marvell 88SS9187 bislang war und wie sich unser Testproband mit 256 GB Speicherkapazität in Sachen Preis/Leistung im Feld platzieren kann, lesen Sie in unserem ausführlichen Praxistest der Plextor M5 Pro Xtreme! Außerdem werfen wir einen Blick auf die Unterschiede zwischen der herkömmlichen M5 Pro und der verbesserten Xtreme-Variante. Wie immer wünschen wir Ihnen viel Spaß beim Lesen des Artikels!

Looking at the vast number of drives on the market, there are so many different combinations of controller and flash memory to choose from, for some it is a daunting prospect and thus they stick to the big names that have a proven following and typically this means that they will end up with a drive that houses a SandForce controller and a traditional array of 16GB 22nm NAND IC's from another partner.
SandDisk, like many other companies, are looking for a way to push their products to the forefront of the SSD market and in the case of SanDisk, this has resulted in a new architecture on the drive with the inclusion of a highly efficient Marvell controller with independent channels leading towards some of SanDisk's home-brewed 19nm MLC NAND memory with a separate SLC layer for improved performance for small file writes which has been dubbed as nCache.
This in-house production of memory is an obvious advantage for SanDisk and it leads to more controlled production costs, however using this particular Marvell controller - the SS889175 - is new to me and it will be interesting to see how well it can keep up with the SF-2281 from SandForce - typically the chip of choice.

The latest SSD from OCZ is the Vertex 3.20, a revised model of the winning Vertex 3, which now features 20nm NAND flash along with a proven SandForce SF-2281 controller. Considering that the Vertex 3 price has been also dropped, both SSDs fight for the same price point and deliver comparable performances.

The Toshiba PX02SM series of SSDs leverages the enhanced speed of dual port 12Gb/s SAS, the Toshiba/Marvell controller and 24nm eMLC NAND to provide bleeding edge performance.

The SSD world has just taken a massive step forward with the unintended displaying of LSI SandForce next generation flash storage processor, Codenamed GRIFFIN, at Computex this week. Where other websites were noticing the incredible 1.6TB capacity of this SSD, The SSD Review observed that it is a single chip design, LSI SandForce driven, and capable of speeds of 1800MB/s read and write with 200,000 IOPS, all in a typical notebook 2.5”design! Our later attempts to have the story refuted as a mistake in specifications met with negative results and this discovery indeed seems to be 100% authentic. Such performance has guaranteed once again that the original SandForce team, alongside with LSI, has once again made an enormous technological jump in the world of SSDs!

Everybody needs a NAS, I'm convinced. Maybe if I described what the modern NAS has become - a Private Cloud, then everyone would agree. Years ago, when Benchmark Reviews started reviewing NAS servers, they were made to sit on your network as a sort of file server and you used proprietary, vendor supplied backup software. Today, as we all know, everything is wide open. Access anything, anywhere, with any application is not just a dream anymore. Hardware is still important, but the depth and breadth of the software is becoming more of a differentiator. The ASUSTOR AS-604T NAS Network Storage Server uses a familiar hardware platform - Intel Atom and a Linux distro, but the design team didn't stop there. There are some fundamental improvements that were ready to be solved from a slightly different perspective. Join in, as we see how this new 4-bay device compares to its competitors.

Today we are looking at the Kingston Mobilelite Wireless, a portable SD card reader with WiFi capabilities. Zardon reviewed the Kingston Wi-Drive earlier this year and found it to be ”a very useful device at a very competitive price point.” Like the Wi-Drive, the Mobilelite Wireless is aimed at Android and Apple users while those with a Windows phone will have to wait for their version of the app needed to use the reader.
