Considering the path OCZ has taken throughout the years from saturating the market space with several different options in their SSD line, right up to their purchase by Toshiba and change of focus to premium SSD releases, most wouldn’t expect an entry level release any time soon.  They would be wrong and, although they may be describing this as an …

Our visit to the ADATA booth at Computex 2015 this morning was rather interesting as it was the second time in two days that we saw a manufacturer introduce an external SSD with the newest USB 3.1 included, providing for much higher transfer speeds.  As new and unique as USB 3.1 is, it is (at least in my opinion) somewhat …

To date, there is not a M.2 NVMe SSD on the market for retail purchase.  In fact, one would still be hard pressed to find PCIe X4 M.2 SSDs available at the retail level, but for 3rd party sales of the Samsung XP941 and newest SM951 series M.2 SSDs.  OCZ hopes to change this soon enough and reserved this news …

I could write a book on the leaps forward we have seen in flash technology within the past few years.  Many might argue that it is one of the fastest segments of technology growth today.  It touches all of our lives.  Without SSDs, or flash technology, the world of cell phones might revert back to flip phones, ultrabooks to 5lb …

It is not often that we write about products that aren’t at least on their way to reality in the SSD arena, but we had to chuckle just a bit when we received this new device, called a ‘Pure Plop’ of all things.  The truth is that we had to laugh at the simplicity of this device, just as much …

So I am holding this Samsung Portable T1 1TB SSD in my hand and thinking how far we have come to make possible the actual storage of a quarter million songs, 200,000 pictures, 1 million e-books or 500 hours of video on a device 3/4 the size of a business card and 30 grams in weight. To put that weight …

Every now and then, we are fortunate to have SSDs reach our bench that one might not normally find within every day PC systems or servers.  Our review today of the Super Talent DuraDrive AT7 SSD is just that; a SSD fully intended for the automobile industry, and more specifically In-vehicle Infotainment Systems.  Unlike other examples that we have reviewed …

I know it may be hard to conceive but the world isn’t just made of flash and tech.  Once again this year, we have been lucky enough to find some gorgeous models to break the SSD news, if only for a bit.  We would like to thank all models very much for their participation once again this year. Check out …

A quick stop and meeting with OWC CEO and Founder Larry O’Connor at the Other World Computing Booth during CES revealed two very interesting new entries to the SSD realm.  First up, OWC is introducing a brand new Envoy Pro Mini USB 3.0 flash drive in capacities of 120, 240 and 480GB and capable of speeds up to 433MB/s.
