On our Test Bench this morning is the Samsung Portable SSD (PSSD) T5 EVO and it is a rather unique device.  There is no doubt whatsoever that, at only 3 3/4″ x 1 1/2″ x 5/8″ and weighing 3.5oz, this is the most compact 8TB on the market, but also, this PSSD attains speeds of 460MB/s read and write which …

It has been nearly two years since we have reviewed the Corsair Neutron XT. At its release it was the first SSD we analyzed with the Phison S10 controller and after putting it through the paces, we were quite impressed with its performance at first show. The combination of the S10 controller with all its features and Toshiba’s 19nm MLC NAND …

For the SSD of the Week today we have a relatively new competitor among the SSD marketplace. Eluktronics has just started dabbling with SSDs last year and was formed only 4 years ago. We have tested the Eluktro Pro Performance SSDs which are their higher tiered line among the two that they currently have. We see with their SSDs that …

In our last two SSDs of the Weeks we had some insane value dollar/GB. This week however, we have a different type of value with the SanDisk Extreme Pro released a year ago. The Extreme Pro’s value lies in its performance and warranty. Even after a year on the market it still stands as one of the most consistent SATA …

We have covered the Samsung 850 EVO in our SSD of the Week before, however, it was to highlight the 500GB capacity. Today we would like to point out a great deal on the 1TB model at just $336.34! That’s just $0.33 per GB for one of the top consumer SSDs out! This price is great considering most 1TB SSDs …

For this week’s SSD of the Week we have an enthusiast and gamer SSD that is not quite as extreme as last week’s Intel 750 PCIe, but has much more value. You can tell from bright packaging and graphic that it is for a consumer who wants a little flair in their Hard Drive slots.  The PNY CS2111 XLR8 is …

During our last iteration of SSD of the Week we went over the competitive price drop the Samsung 850 EVO had to match the newly introduced entry-level SSDs. On this week’s agenda we have the Crucial MX200 that we covered a month ago. Last year when the MX100 was introduced as a lower tiered product there was a hole in …

In our previous SSD of the Week we looked at the Samsung portable SSD T1, a small and secure SSD for when you are on the go. This week we look at another one of Samsung’s products, the Samsung 850 EVO. We reviewed this SSD back in December and now it has had a very competitive drop in price to …

Previously, in SSD of the Week we highlighted the Kingston SSDNow V300, which was on sale at ridiculously cheap prices. This week we would like to turn your attention to the Patriot Ignite we reviewed a few weeks back as it has slightly dropped in cost as well. The Patriot Ignite is a mid-tier SSD focused on meeting an ever-growing …
