There has always been a rather distinct division in the SSD world. As much as there had to be a value driven SSD to move the typical SSD users over, there also became that demand for the top performing SSDs, and so there should be. Flash media performance has changed our world exponentially. Whether we realize it or not, every …

Kingston NV3 Gen 4 2TB SSD Review – An Ideal Choice for the Average PC User
It seems we are always looking for the best in SSDs, whether it be performance or capacity. Reviewers are always more than happy to sing in praise of high end SSDs and so it should be; they represent just how far we have come in flash storage. Often overlooked, however, are those users don’t have high end needs for their …

Once upon a time, I sat with a company questioning them as to why they were so hesitant to market a 1TB SSD; they wouldn’t push that 512GB barrier. Their honest and frank response was simply, “Why sell very few of a product that costs more to build when we can sell much more of what is in demand at …

Having been around storage and solid state drives for a few years, we can speak with some authority that client SSDs found in PC systems, laptops and ultra books paled in comparison to those retail SSDs being tested. I can remember our review of the Dell XPS 13 Gold Edition in fact, where the performance spoke to 1500MB/s read and …

Samsung has been around for some time now. In fact they were one the first to spread their wings in the consumer flash industry. Just like any other manufacturer, there have been a few speed bumps along the way but Samsung has established themselves as a quality storage company for more years than one might consider. Their external storage collection …

We couldn’t help but notice the excitement in the last day or so as Linus posted a rather detailed Crucial Gen 5 T700 NVMe SSD exclusive. Kudos for snagging that as well as the detailed SSD breakdown for those not familiar with SSDs. Something struck us a bit odd though and we are rather certain that we are walking the …

Every now and then a product comes across our desk that we just know is going to be special…maybe even a game changer. Such is the case with the newest Micron 2550 DRAMless PCIe 4.0 Client M.2 SSD that we are testing today and, quite frankly, it is hard to believe there is really so much in such a small …

Well, Sabrent seems to have pulled off something that we don’t expect to see any other manufacturer do anytime soon. Not Samsung. Not Crucial. Not Intel, Toshiba, Lexar, Team Group, Transcend, Mushkin, XPG, Corsair, WD, Seagate, ADATA, Corsair and not Silicon Power. Sabrent has thrown down the gauntlet and we want all to know that we are willing to accept …

The latest and greatest in SSDs is PCIe 4 and the extreme performance that comes with it, presently showing off speeds up to 7GB/s. Accompanying these high power and rather expensive SSDs is something that we’ve really never had to tackle in the SSD industry, at least not to this extent…heat. At least up until today, Gen 4 SSDs had …
