Portable storage has come a long way.  As much as I am not going to give my age away by mentioning rather large bulletproof hard drive contained external SSDs, being able to throw a portable SSD in your pocket, much less one that is capable of storing hundreds of thousands of pictures, songs or thousands of movies, is impressive.  Such …

Oh my.  Having been involved in the flash industry since 2007, I can honestly say I never thought I would have in my hands what I have today….an 8TB external SSD that is powered by only its Thunderbolt 3 data cable  and is 4″ long by 1.75″ wide by 1/2 thick.  It can move data at speeds up to 2.7GB/s.  …

It is always great to bring something to the forefront that is just a bit different.  Today, we are taking a quick look at a product that very well may be a technology break through…that has been made possible by SMI.  The product is the newest Accell Driver-Less USB-C 4K Docking Station and its existence has been made possible by …

So we are going to take a look at a product today that has been out for some time.  I have actually had this in my hands for several months and never reviewed it as my first provided sample wasn’t a review sample.  The reason I wanted to review it today is because it is a decent example of portable …

I am somewhat of a camera buff.  I love photography and I carry a Canon 5D Mk IV, that even I will admit is much to far ahead of my skill set.  My wife.  Well, she used to take incredible pleasure in reminding me how many all inclusive vacations this camera cost.  That was until I started shooting family weddings. …

Typically, one might think of Nano cards only when it came to cell phones. The nano SIM card, in its original iteration, allowed us to communicate.  Huawei changed that.  Their newer releases have dual nano slots that can be used for two SIM cards if you travel alot, or for additional on-board storage memory. The price of storage is perhaps …

I am always looking for a decent docking station.  As much as it is very convenient when travelling to tech events, more so, I am always looking for the perfect answer to office convenience.  Reaching behind the PC to find just the right port, or even plugging a device in the PC front when its cabling just isn’t long enough …

It is no secret that I am a fan of portable storage.  Thunderbolt 3 Portable SSDs rank tops as we can hit speeds of 2.8GB/s, however, anything above SATA is a bonus when you work in the media world and take the amount of photos as I do.  Retail sales of flash storage has conformed just a bit as of …

So… We know that anything but an SSD has to be damn (Can I say that?) credible for us to post on The SSD Review now don’t we?  Truth be told, we haven’t posted a chassis review since way back in 2012 and it would be rare as heck to find me doing such a review.  After all, we have …

USB 3.2 Gen 2 with Type-C has become the norm as of late and more systems these days are being sold with USB-C or Thunderbolt included.  Simply put, this means faster transfer speeds between your system and external storage, this storage being bus powered and not requiring a separate adapter and cable to power the device.  ADATA has recently released …
