We spoke to the new DEVSLP SATA specification a bit earlier this week and we are seeing a few manufacturers already preparing for its implementation.  DEVSLP is only possible with SSDs and enables your system to continuously update, all the while preserving battery life while it is in an ultra low power sleep mode.  As much as many might think …

When we first caught wind of the Adaptec Series 7 RAID adapters late last year, we were itching for the chance to get it in our test bench. But, in order to do the review justice, we needed SSDs. We needed a LOT of SSDs. We needed 24 SSDs. Unfortunately, sampling even 4 or 8 SSDs at one time is …

Following in the footprints of our Seagate 600 SSD Review last week, today we are examining the next in line of the Seagate SSD family, the 600 Pro.

Even …

For a storage reviewer, there is no better discovery than something that cuts the time of storage reviews as most can take a week or longer. We first spoke of this  in 2010 when we reviewed the Vantec External Dock which didn’t quite meet our needs. This report examines the HighPoint 5322 Dual eSATA 6Gbps External Dock, along with their …

Our SSD analysis this week displays only the second consumer available SSD to hit the streets with eMLC 10,000 P/E rated memory. The KingSpec Challenger E3000s SSD is enterprise grade, LSI SandForce Driven, and relies on Intel eMLC memory.  Unlike other SSDs tested to date, the E3000s was able to provide great low 4K random write performance of 112MB/s, surpassing …
