Not to often that we have to eat crow (figuratively speaking) but our review today is just that.  A few months ago, we reviewed the JMicron Type-C NVMe M.2 SSD to USB 3.1 Gen 2 adapter and quoted it as being ‘not quite ready for prime time.’  Simply, I was wrong.  As a reviewer, we sometimes get caught up in …

Unless you really dig into SSD technology and the inner workings of a SSD, many are probably totally how similar many SSDs really are.  In fact, when the SSD just started breaking out so many years ago, it wouldn’t be unusual for two SSDs to be nothing more than a different brand sticker.  Absolutely true.  One manufacturer would successfully market …

When we think of solid state drives today, two things comes to mind: how fast can it go and how much is going to cost me. Typically these two go hand in hand, the more speed you want the more it’s going to cost you. But what happens when you don’t want to fork out the big bucks for a …
