Our SSD Reviews

Ever since SSDs were introduced to the retail market back in 07, one of the main complaints has always been capacity.  After all, the first SSD releases were only 32 and 64GB. The hopes of one day seeing the performance of an SSD coupled with the capacity of a hard drive has grown and, too many, we think our analysis …

Our visit to the SuperTalent booth and one on one with ST Product Marketing Manager Roman Nahal resulted in an unexpected exclusive this week with Roman handing us the very first SuperTalent RC4 Flash Drive outside of engineering hands. Better yet, SuperTalent also had the latest prototype, fresh with Toshiba NAND flash Toggle Mode memory, ready for our return to …

External storage has become all the rage these days and it doesn’t seem so far back that we introduced you to the Kingston 64GB Wi-Drive.  In that review, I described the Wi-Drive as being a life saver for its ability to create a much needed bridge between my PC and IOS devices, more specifically my IPAD which had no means …

Our SSD analysis today is another first for us here at TSSDR as we have finally received a Mushkin Atlas 480GB mSATA SSD, the reigning champion in capacity for mSATA drives at this point and time. The interest we have seen in this drive, particularly pertaining to it’s height, has been somewhat of a shock as several e-mails have been …

A week or so ago, we published a review of the MyDigital BP4 that was ‘ a wolf in sheeps clothing’ in a way as it was a 120GB SSD with an exterior label claiming to be 240GB. After posting the review, MyDigitalSSD called and insisted on sending the REAL 240GB BP4, claiming that it’s performance would be something to …

Ok so we have had a few hectic weeks since the last KingFast F3 Plus SSD was received and analysed.  In result, KingFast was nice enough to send us a new one right away. Based in Shenzen, China, KingFast ships about 50,000 SSDs monthly when we combine enterprise, business, consumer and oem. Our analysis today examines the F3 Plus which …

There have been more than a few interesting things that we have seen in reviewing technology over the past few years. Today’s SSD analysis is yet another, although it is not the first time this has happened. Can you catch the oddity in this report just yet?  If not, take a closer look and follow along as we walk you …

Our first mSATA SSD review was published a little over two years ago today and, at that time, the thought of a SSD 1/3 of the size of a credit card becoming mainstream was really non-existent. It is a bit amusing because that SSD was the Intel 310 mSATA and since then, 35 mSATA SSDs (blade style included) have been …

It seems that our relationship with Plextor has had a shot of Adrenaline since our meet at CES Las Vegas 2013 and ‘first up’ analysis of the new Plextor M5 Pro Xtreme SSD is the result.  We did have a bit of a heads up when Plextor asked us to review the M5 Pro in this meeting, but definitely never …

Without a doubt, the thing we love most about the review business is the opportunity to introduce new technology and things get even better yet when we are selected to be one of the first to introduce a product to the world…through a more detailed analysis.  On the flipside, it truly hurts to have to ship back those products that …
