Much has changed in PC sales through the years, yet much is the same.  Things can be unpredictable.  Looking back, there have been instances of manufacturers selling their own brand laptops and ultra books equipped with competitors SSDs as storage, simply to maximize sales of their own higher cost…and higher performing SSDs. In fact, if you think you are getting …

One of the most active companies with respect to SSDs and flash technology has to be Sabrent.  Not only have they become known to release the biggest and fastest in SSDs well before many of the more mature manufacturers, but also, they spread their wings with external SSDs, Thunderbolt 3, USB 3.2 Gen 2, as well as enclosures for those …

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 …

It’s not often that we take the time to look at something with a cost of only $24.02 and we’re no different with any reviewer; such a review isn’t time and cost effective.  I am a bit different though. When I discover something I might keep, or something that I feel others should know about, I take the time to …

Tool-Free.  We happened to read this this in both our first dual enclosure review that we had posted earlier, as well as that of which we are about to post.  That is so key in manufacturing portable SSD enclosures and, at least I can admit I have spent hours looking for that small SSD screw that just fell on the …

On our test Bench today is the Sabrent Rugged Thunderbolt 3 to Dual NVMe M.2 SSD Tool-Free Enclosure. It is a bit different than most as it allows one to install and work with two M.2 SSDs, vice one.  Unlike similar Thunderbolt 3 enclosures, the user has the ability two create and use logical drives from two SSDs, during which …

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 …

It needs to be said.  Having a Gen 4 SSD in hand with speeds of 5GB/s in a 4TB capacity is rather special.  Many might never find need for such speed and capacity, but as a media professional, this is heaven.  My camera of choice is a Canon EOS R5 and I only shoot RAW which means each shot is …

Perhaps the one thing that Sabrent has done best in the SSD industry is to fill the void that many would not.  They struck hard on entry with capacities that many might not chance, jumping into QLC well ahead of the curve, and then marketing PCIe 4.0 performance at what appeared to be the perfect time.  And if you are …

It’s not often that we do product comparisons in an SSD review, but it just may be unavoidable in this case.  The compared product is a Thunderbolt 3 SSD I have had in my pocket for a few years now.  It is my go-to for portable storage and is perhaps the most perfect cut of a single piece of aluminum …
