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.

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 …

Perhaps one of the hottest tech items to hit in the last year is the ultrabook, a laptop typically measuring under 1/2″ thick, weighing less than 3 lbs, having performance as high as 1GB/s transfer speeds and being capable of up to ten hours battery life. As new and amazing as the ultra is, the consumer also learned of the …

While at our meeting with Plextor at CES Las Vegas 2013, we had a conversation with respect to how TSSDR and Plextor could better serve the consumer in forming a bit tighter of a relationship with respect to upcoming product release. In this conversation, the fact that we had yet to review the Plextor M5 Pro came up and we …

Our evaluation of the SanDisk Ultra Plus SSD surpasses that of a typical analysis, in that, it provides the reader with the ability to understand what is possible if you are the ‘Owner of The Fab’. In this SSD build, SanDisk has not only moved to the new Marvell 9175 controller but also, they introduce nCache, a totally new performance …

Today’s SSD analysis takes a look at a new SSD to the market, this being the Kingston SSDNow V300 SATA 3 SSD. The V300 is a unique Kingston SSD introduction as it is their first product using the new Toshiba 19nm NAND flash memory process, but also, this SSD is ‘SandForce Driven by LSI’ and a key example of the …
