It’s a good feeling when you build a PC and two of the top PC benchmarks, companies that account for several million comparison tests worldwide, both place you in the 99th percentile of all systems ever tested for certain benchmarks, as well as in the 96% mark over all. To say that I haven’t jumped up, punched my fists into …

Samsung 980 NVMe Gen 3 SSD Review – DRAM-Less SSDs Go Mainstream…and they are fast!
Recommend a DRAM-less SSD on any website forum or product purchase site and you have just committed storage suicide. There is a ‘cancel-culture’ that will hunt you down and ensure that you never post without their jumping in ever again. People who have never had a DRAM-less SSD in their hand will hound you endlessly because, well, Linus said not …
Read More »Intel SSD6 670P NVMe M.2 SSD Review (2TB) – Unbelievable QLC Performance
Many many not consider how SSDs have changed from generation to generation but, throughout the years, the push forward has been increased on capacity and top tier performance. In order to achieve a larger capacity, the flash memory footprint has to be reduced and layers stacked, much like we see in apartment buildings, for the most part. The challenge of …
Read More »Sabrent Type-C Dual NVMe SSD Enclosure Review (EC-SSD2)
One of the most active companies with respect to SSDs and flash technology has to be Sabrent. Not only have they become known to release the biggest and fastest in SSDs well before many of the more mature manufacturers, but also, they spread their wings with external SSDs, Thunderbolt 3, USB 3.2 Gen 2, as well as enclosures for those …
Read More »XPG GAMMIX S70 2TB Gen4 NVMe M.2 SSD Review – As Fast as They Come
Perhaps one of the most admirable traits about ADATA and their gaming brand XPG throughout the years is their willingness to incorporate a wide range of SSD components in their products. We don’t think that there is another that comes remotely close, most latching on to a certain manufacturer and establishing long lasting partnerships. Thistrait is the case with respect …

Back in December, we posted our review on the one and two terabyte versions of the newest Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD, both of which received our Editor’s Choice as being one of the best available in the industry. Breaching 7GB/s read speeds and coming very close to that with write performance is not an easy …

It is a bit amusing how we might be speaking of the merits and oversights of a new product in the tech industry, and only a few days later something very similar turns up. In this case it has to do exactly with this latest product to hit our Test Bench, the WD_Black D50 1TB SSD Gaming Dock where, a …
Read More »Sabrent USB Type-C Tool-Free M.2 NVMe/SATA Enclosure (EC-SNVE) Review – A Dynamite Product
It’s not often that we take the time to look at something with a cost of only $24.02 and we’re no different with any reviewer; such a review isn’t time and cost effective. I am a bit different though. When I discover something I might keep, or something that I feel others should know about, I take the time to …
Read More »Sabrent Thunderbolt 3 to NVMe M.2 SSD Tool-Free Enclosure (EC-T3NS) Review
Tool-Free. We happened to read this this in both our first dual enclosure review that we had posted earlier, as well as that of which we are about to post. That is so key in manufacturing portable SSD enclosures and, at least I can admit I have spent hours looking for that small SSD screw that just fell on the …
Read More »Sabrent Thunderbolt 3 to Dual NVMe M.2 SSD Tool-Free Enclosure Review (EC-T3DN)
On our test Bench today is the Sabrent Rugged Thunderbolt 3 to Dual NVMe M.2 SSD Tool-Free Enclosure. It is a bit different than most as it allows one to install and work with two M.2 SSDs, vice one. Unlike similar Thunderbolt 3 enclosures, the user has the ability two create and use logical drives from two SSDs, during which …
