It is no secret that one of Sabrent’s top weapons in the storage world is the Rocket 4 Plus which has been around for some time now.  First introduced in 2020, the Rocket 4 Plus has been fine tuned to add a 4TB in addition to the original 1/2TB releases and then Sabrent even added a custom heatsink for PS5 …

Most SSD manufacturers have been around four to six times longer than Sabrent, but few can stand beside the company.   Alongside Phison, they have literally pushed the SSD industry forward at a pace that pretty much labels them pioneers and they have only been in this space a few years.  Any reviewer can display a pile of 4/8TB TLC/QLC SSDs, …

Without a doubt, the loudest a reader can be in the SSD world is when a company dares to switch hardware in their SSDs without telling anyone.  This goes back years and, well, few have escaped the wrath of online ridicule when they are caught doing such. I have always been the bad guy and still believe that manufacturers have …

Back in December, we posted our review on the one and two terabyte versions of the newest Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD, both of which received our Editor’s Choice as being one of the best available in the industry.  Breaching 7GB/s read speeds and coming very close to that with write performance is not an easy …

Gen 4 SSDs have been available for just over a year now and the two most talked about characteristics just happen to speak to the good and the bad. The good of course has had us watching storage speeds jumping from 3.5GB/s to 5GB/s and now 7GB/s becoming the norm. The bad is the fact that Gen 4 necessitated additional …

Portable storage is something so many overlook, at least until it is too late.  It’s importance cannot be overstated as so many have learned valuable lessons much too late.  Myself…my laptop dropped out of my hand on a Military base far too many years ago resulting in the loss of close to a year in weapons establishments surveys, along with …

Having been around storage and solid state drives for a few years, we can speak with some authority that client SSDs found in PC systems, laptops and ultra books paled in comparison to those retail SSDs being tested.  I can remember our review of the Dell XPS 13 Gold Edition in fact, where the performance spoke to 1500MB/s read and …

Don’t really know where to start with this.  Every now and then reviewers have product sent to them that breaks the norm.  It does things it shouldn’t.  Next thing you know there is alot of jabbering back and forth and everyone runs their tests again wondering what the heck?!?!  The Crucial T500 Pro is on our Test Bench right now …

Samsung has been around for some time now.   In fact they were one the first to spread their wings in the consumer flash industry.  Just like any other manufacturer, there have been a few speed bumps along the way but Samsung has established themselves as a quality storage company for more years than one might consider.  Their external storage collection …

I am going to date myself acknowledging that I used to watch Star Trek as a child but can safely say that I was never a Star Trek fanatic.  Still, after testing this new Samsung 990 Pro 4TB NVMe M.2 SSD over the last week, Star Trek and far too many ‘warp speed’ quotes came to mind.  The 990 Pro …
