Sustained write disk performance is not advertised with most CFexpress Type B cards today and, in fact, it is not common whatsoever in the flash industry. As much as it is not spoken of, consumer SSDs, SD cards, compact flash cards, and even the latest CFexpress cards, are marketed and sold according to their ‘peak’ read and write data transfer …

A few months back we posted a review on the latest and greatest Phison PS5012-E12 NVMe controller and our first look at this device was no less than impressive. With throughput reaching 3.4GB/s and IOPS breaking the half million mark, the consensus was that it could be capable of top marks when the finished product hit consumer, oem and even …

It has been a year and a half since the release of the Crucial MX300 and that means it is time for an update. Unlike what we were expecting, we didn’t receive an MX400, but rather a Crucial MX500. The reason behind skipping MX400 name and going straight to MX500 for this product launch was because the word for 400 sounds …
