For about $25 at press time, does this SATA 6Gb/s controller live up to its claims? Read our full review with benchmark results to find out.

Now that mSATA drives are really starting to grow in popularity, we are seeing more models pop up from various SSD manufacturers. Kingston has the latest one we've received powered by a SandForce controller paired with Toshiba NAND. The SSDNow mS200 line is part of their 'System Builders' series which they state is "specifically designed for use in OEM branded servers". What this means for most is that it's geared toward mobile hosts with a focus on value (it comes with no accessories) and power savings while still pumping out up to 550MB/s read and 520MB/s write performance. Read on to see how it performs!

The practice of using unbranded peripherals in computers is a common one, and even more so in the case of Apple, who takes it a step further by demanding that components such as the SSDs are proprietary through small the reassignment of circuitry within the SSD. Not only can the SSD in Apple’s new Mac products not be upgraded with third-party SSDs, but also, they can’t even be switched off with SSDs of previous Apple releases. Simply, the high-capacity SSD of your 2012 Apple MBA will not work in your 2013 MBA.

The KingSpec CHA-M2B7 M.2 NGFF ultrabook SSD is available in capacities of 32, 64 an 128GB and is a 42mm(L) X 22mm(W)X3.2mm(H) SATA M.2 SSD. To say it is small is an understatement as we can fit four of these on a typical business card with plenty of room to spare.

We revisit the SATA Express interface to obtain a more up-to-date look at what the next generation of SATA connections is capable of. Our tools for the job; a retail Asus motherboard set to release soon, and a concept version of Asus’ Hyper Express enclosure, internally powered by solid state storage.

Today we take a look at Western Digital’s My Cloud Personal Cloud Storage, an external hard drive system that connects to your home network and can be access from the internet via a PC, smartphone, or tablet just like a cloud base service. The WD My Cloud is a personal private cloud at its core and is basically a Network Attached Storage (NAS) device designed to have tons of functionality and extremely an easy to use GUI. Today we’ll be talking a look at the WD My Cloud 2TB.

Billed as the world’s fastest SD cards, the recently released SanDisk Extreme PRO SDHC/SDXC UHS-II memory card series uses the latest high-performance SD specification, UHS-II, to offer up to 280MB/s (1867X) read transfer speeds for optimized post production workflows and up to 250MB/s (1667X) write speeds for continuous burst-mode shooting. Read on to see how the SanDisk 32GB Extreme PRO UHS-II card performs!

Voltage gated Ca++ channel. Synaptic vesicle. Neurotransmitter. Reuptake pump. Postsynaptic density. Receptor. Connexon connexin monomer. Plasma membranes. Intercellular space. Hydrophilic channel. If you are in Electrical Engineering like me, and never really gotten around to studying anything in biology past high school, the first that comes to your mind is probably the title of one of my favorite textbooks not exactly written by Dr. Seuss. It goes along the line of, "What the fudge is this crap?" (I'll let you make your own word substitutions when searching for it in Google Images, haha). So to make things fair, in the unlikely event that we have a medical doctor among us reading this introduction right now with absolutely no background in computers, let me introduce you to a few terms from our end of the world. OCZ Technology. SandForce SF-2281. Micron 29F64G08CBAAA 25nm NAND flash. 50% over provisioning. Dataplex caching software. That's right. How do you feel now? In all seriousness, with the definition of 'synapse' well defined in two different contexts, the OCZ Synapse is one crucially interesting product that we simply cannot miss out. Designed for anyone running Windows 7, no requirement for Intel Smart Response on the Z68 chipset thanks to its included Dataplex caching software, is this a solution that can truly turbocharge your PC's storage performance that combines the storage capacity of an HDD with the speed of an SSD? Let's get down on some benchmarks!

If you can't beat them, join them." Some call that team stacking, others call it cowardly, but let me ask you a question: When has being the last one standing ever brought anyone victory? Indeed, in the business world, we just call this -- for a lack of better terms -- getting with the times. After all, being in business is just about making money, and it is important to make a product that sells well. In the past, Kingston has been stubbornly reluctant to slap on a SandForce controller in their SSDs, and by doing so, their drives never really made a significant impact in the enthusiast market. Well, this is all about to change. With the company's latest Kingston HyperX solid state drive now equipped with the renowned SF-2281 SATA 6Gb/s controller, Intel NAND flash chips, and an extremely sleek exterior design, does it live up to the HyperX brand's long legacy of cutting edge performance? To find out, we took in the moderately priced 120GB version in the upgrade kit form (Which includes an Acronis cloning program and an external USB enclosure for a price premium of $5-10 at press time), and slapped it through our usual battery of benchmarks. Let's waste no time.
