It's been a while since any of Thecus products have graced our site, but today I've got one of their newest ones the N2200. It's a two bay NAS box that can use both 2.5” and 3.5” hard drives. The designed is different than other Thecus products I've reviewed before, it's aesthetically pleasing, it's got small size and it's easy to use. The N2200 can be plenty of things for you like a webserver, ftp server, iTunes server, standard media server and several more things as well. It's a feature rich product that not only looks great but performs fairly well. So read on to learn more and see how it compares to my Seagate BlackArmor NAS220 box...

Today we take a look at the recently released Plextor M6V SSD, specifically the 256GB model. These drives incorporate Toshiba NAND flash memory and are released to target a wide enthusiast audience due to the competitive pricing. Right now this 256GB model is available for around £70 from Scan in the UK.

Mit der SDXC PRO 64 GB und der SDHC PLUS 32 GB haben wir zwei Speicherkarten von Samsung im SD-Format im Test, die dem Nutzer neben viel Speicherplatz, hohe Geschwindigkeiten und Sicherheit für den Gebrauch in mobilen Geräten bieten. Es handelt sich bei beiden Speichermedien um Class-10-Modelle, allerdings bringt die SDXC-Memory-Card eine höher Kapazität mit und eignet sich daher für Anwendungen, die mit größeren Dateien umgehen müssen.

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.

"On the PCSTATS test bench today is a unique 2nd Gen. Solid State Hybrid Drive (SSHD) from Seagate called the Momentus XT. This hybrid drive doesn't run on Hydrogen, but rather combines 8GB of SSD-grade SLC NAND flash with a standard 750GB two-platter 7200RPM notebook HDD. Looking no different than any common 2.5" notebook hard drive, the trick up the Momentus XT's sleeve that it learns what data you frequently use and caches this to its 8GB of internal flash memory."

If I were to read an SSD review where the author spoke of traveling 6623 miles to personally receive a sample SSD, only to return those 6623 miles, conduct analysis and write a report on that SSD, I’d tell him that he’d lost his marbles. Having just returned from the Samsung 2012 SSD Summit in Seoul, South Korea, and just completed review of the world’s first TLC based Samsung 840 SSD however, we are saying just that.

Depending on what you need an external hard drive for, you’re either going to have a small pocket sized one or a larger one to sit on your desk. The Consus is a great enclosure that fits in your pocket and has some great features. Read on to see what those features are and how the Consus does during testing.
