Today in our lab we will be testing  two of the new Areca ARC-1882 Second-Generation 6Gb/s SAS/SATA RAID adapters. Yes folks, that’s a plural and we are lucky enough to have two of these beasts in our hot little hands.  Get ready for speeds as you seldom see in any technology and review forum.  Sit down, buckle up and hold …

Our featured shot displays the new Micron mSATA 6Gbps prototype which just may be seen in new release laptops and net books early next year. Of course it features Micron NAND flash memory and would also contain the newly updated Marvell controller which would make this SSD one powerful piece of hardware. The shot was released at the recent Needham …

This PCI Express SSD is a prototype Super Talent PCIe 120GB ‘SandForce Driven’ SSD presently being fine tuned by Super Talent for an expected release in the near future, specific dates unknown.

After our SSD review of the AData S511 a few months back, we  knew there had to be a S510 in line for release with asynchronous memory as its host and we weren’t wrong. Our SSD review today examines the AData S510 SATA 3 120GB SSD. On releasing the S511, AData has followed the lead of several ‘SandForce Driven’ manufacturers …

The SSD Review has acquired somewhat of a unique opportunity, in that, a prototype PCIe solid state drive is being developed and is definitely one of the first first to highlight the LSI & SandForce partnership The SSD is NOT of LSI manufacture, not the OCZ Velo or WarpDrive, is not released and we are certain that this is the …

With $45000 in hardware, over 100 hours spent pushing it to it’s limit, speeds of 2.7GB/s and over 461,800 IOPS, we are fairly certain that this RAID Controller and SSD review will be one of our most exciting reports to date, and not matched anytime soon. Today we are going to go head-to-head with the LSI 9265-8i and the Adaptec …

The OCZ Revodrive Hybrid 1TB PCIe SSD is OCZs pairing of their newly integrated Revo 3 line with Toshibas 1TB HDD, a much anticipated response to the consumers desire for SSD performance with HDD capacity. Our  review of the ‘Hybrid’ today, we promise you, will be unlike any other as we have stripped it down to its ‘barebone’ components and …

The peripheral market is filled with tons of different products, but rarely do you find one that fits everyones needs perfectly. Perhaps the pickiest of all of them is the mouse, or more precisely, the gaming mouse. There is never just one mouse that takes the cake, simply due to the fact that the nature of such devices is based …

SSDs that utilize ‘Async’ NAND flash memory seem to be all the rage these days.  Despite the initial concerns with ‘async’ SSDs, we stated our belief that the price versus performance difference would appeal to the consumer, a tradeoff that seems to be paying off in dividends. Our report today is on the Super Talent TeraDrive CT3 120GB SATA 3 …

Data security is an issue for all users these days. Losing a single drive worth of pictures, documents and videos can be just as devastating as a house fire, tornado, or even a hurricane for many people.
