Avec son très performant X25-M, Intel est resté pendant très longtemps à la pointe du marché du SSD. Mais voilà, la concurrence a pointé le bout de son nez et a sonné le glas du X25-M. Intel se devait donc de réagir et l'arrivée du SATA 6.0 est l'occasion rêver pour nous livrer une nouvelle petite bête, le 510, que nous testons ce jour dans sa déclinaison 120 Go, et qui envoie théoriquement 450 Mo/sec en lecture et 210 Mo/sec en écriture.

As a follow-up to their very successful X25-M series of drives, Intel has launched their 320 Series drives which feature a host of new features while being driven by their own proprietary controller. With the SATA 3Gbps SSD market being so crowded, can Intel tempt consumers to look their way? See the outcome of the testing and judge for yourself.

Es ist also soweit, nach vielen Ankündigungen und dem üblichen Marketing-Rummel fließen endlich auch bezahlbare USB 3.0 Sticks in den Markt der bezahlbaren Geräte ein, so daß wir es uns nicht nehmen ließen, drei interessante Sticks zu testen. Voraussetzung für das Erreichen der anvisierten Übertragungsraten ist ein Mainboard mit entsprechendem USB 3.0 Anschluss oder eine Zusatzkarte. Doch selbst dann klaffen Theorie und Wirklichkeit immer noch ziemlich weit auseinander, wie wir noch sehen werden.
Unsere Testobjekte stammen aus den laufenden Produktionen von Adata, Kingston und Mach Extreme, also bis auf Mach Xtreme alles altbekannte Speicherspezialisten. Wobei wir erst kürzlich eine SSD von Mach Xtreme begutachten durften, die sich sehr ansprechend in Szene setzen konnte. Die Sticks wurden teilweise im Internet gekauft, teilweise aus der laufenden Serie heraus von Herstellern geordert, so daß wir einen guten Überblick darüber erhielten, was beim Händler tatsächlich im Regal liegt. Kurz und gut, wie sich die Sticks im rauhen Testalltag bewährt haben, könnt ihr wie immer in unserem ausführlichen Praxis-Review nachlesen, dazu wünschen wir wieder viel Vergnügen...

Wer mit vielen Datenträgern arbeitet, will nicht unbedingt für jede Festplatte und jedes Solid-State-Drive ein externes Gehäuse kaufen. Als praktische Alternative bietet sich eine Dockingstation an, welche SATA-Geräte der Formate 3,5 und 2,5 Zoll aufnehmen kann. Beispielsweise das Modell Icy Box IB-110StU3-B.

KitGuru has reviewed almost all of the Synology NAS range released in the last year, but today we are looking at something slightly different – the Diskstation DS411 Slim, which is a compact, high performance little unit solely designed for 2.5 inch drives.

There is no doubt that the most innovative SSD to come out of 2010 was the Viding Modular Solutions SATADIMM. Based on another 2010 standout, the SandForce SF-1000 Series controller, the SATADIMM is not only a great example of SSD technology revolutionizing the storage market, but also how thoughtful manufacturers can shape future standards. Viking Modular Solutions isn't a high volume manufacturer and you aren't going to find many of their products in the retail market. Viking is far from a one hit wonder, though. The company was started in 1988 and since their first product has been manufacturing high quality parts for the enterprise market space and for some of the world's largest OEM manufacturers.

If you had a billion dollars to put in a bank, would you trust a Swede, or a German? If you wanted to invest in a new automobile, would you lean towards a Japanese vehicle, or a Korean made car? Haven't caught on yet? I'll give you one more example, this time a little more obvious. If you were to purchase a bottle of drinking water, would you rather have Canadian H2O, or Iranian water? First of all, I'd like to make it clear in stating that I am not a racist; nor does the point I'm going to make have anything to do with a certain race. Instead, I'm merely stating an observation that as consumers, we have created world-wide-product-stereotypes on what certain countries can and can't do –- or to be less harsh, what countries are good at, and what they aren't. Of course, these few 'cans' could very well be the pride of a nation. The flip side, however, is a little bit more humorous when this country tries another 'thing', and simply put, fails miserably, haha. South Korea also falls into this category. Undoubtedly Korea has its international successes (I.e., music industry, at least in my opinion; oh and who can forget their amazing potatoes), but also has their not so proud moments (Ever seen a true car enthusiast complement a Kia or Hyundai with a genuinely straight face?). What the world doesn't see as much though –- aside from us techni-fatics -- is the rise of electronics seen by Korean companies. Aside from highly respectable companies such as LG and Samsung, what about Zalman? Getting my hands on a unit made by a relatively smaller company competing against the big boys like Thermaltake and Cooler Master definitely gets the blood pumping. So, with my cultural-product-stereotype rant done, my sleeves rolled up, and my new unit beside me, let's get on with review! But wait, I haven't even introduced you to this sleek and innovative product. Today, I will introduce you to the Zalman ZM-VE200. On the surface, this seems like just another HDD enclosure, but it definitely has something up it's sleeve to impress the unimpressed... or does it? Unfortunately Fortunately you'll have to read the rest of this review to find out!

We have posted a new article at The SSD Review which we find may benefit your readers and appreciate consideration in linking this on your site. The SSD Review is a 'solid state drive' specific site that, for the most part , reviews SSD related hardware and also jumps into RAID configurations, Beginners, Buyers and Optimization Guides for the SSD user. We also have a Windows 7 Optimization Guide that has gone viral since it was first published right beside the SSD Optimization Guide.
