Price, performance and capacity.  Time and time again the teller of all SSD success lies on these three factors…typically  Well actually… rarely would you ever count a DRAM-less SSD in that grouping.  There was a time in the industry where the word DRAM-less was a dirty word and the mere thought of recommending such would create response large enough to …

Samsung’s newest SSD release is the 990EVO, a PCIe 5.0 SSD that runs at the lower end of PCIe 4.0 speeds.  We have been running it through our test regimen for the last week or so and I have to say this SSD is a bit of an odd duck.  It is forwards and backwards compatible as one might expect …
