It’s funny how things come full circle. In many ways, The SSD Review is where it is today as a result of a close friend named Kent Smith way back in 2009. Kent worked for a company named Sandforce.  SandForce was an early pioneer of solid state drive controllers and, as coincidental as it may seem, SandForce’s SSD controllers contained …

One might be inclined to think a company exudes confidence with respect to data storage when the first line in their product brief is, ‘The world’s fastest data center SSD’.  After all, storage speed these days, especially in the enterprise and data center world, is much more complex than a simple high throughput read and write or high read IOPS, …

Micron’s latest addition to the enterprise and data center market is the 7600 Gen5 SSD, offered in two variants. The 7600 PRO is optimized for read-intensive workloads like database queries or web servers, while the 7600 MAX, which we have on the test bench today, is engineered for mixed read/write applications. Although the PRO version offers higher maximum capacity, it …

We’ve accomplished something truly unexpected, and something we never imagined possible. Micron has generously provided us with two of their newly released, cutting-edge 1y LPDDR5X SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic  Random-Access Memory) mobile chips, giving us the opportunity to showcase the fastest, most power-efficient, and most compact memory package available in the world today. We’re always a bit amused when oversized packages …

There was a time when acquiring enterprise or data center SSDs meant going through a vendor rep, navigating complex configurations, and waiting for pricing. While that hands-on expertise still has its place, many businesses today simply want a fast, transparent, and frictionless way to get the hardware they need. With AI taking center stage across industries, this shift toward streamlined …

We have in our hot little hands the latest and greatest LaCie Rugged SSD4 and I am personally thinking this SSD may have been made just for me. My true love in life is wildlife photography and I have found myself in just about every weather condition and situations many would never. And yes I have been up a tree …

Patriot memory has been around since 1985 and were one of the early companies to have provided The SSD Review with an SSD sample for review.  It was the Patriot Torqx 2 SATA 2 128GB SSD and that was back on 14 May 2011…14 plus years ago. I reviewed that SSD and had to laugh when checking it out once …

As much as we may find the advance in technology to be somewhat miraculous over the years, perhaps the true wonder of such things is what we don’t see.  For instance, right now you have a smartphone that is more powerful than the PC you may have owned just a few years back. Perhaps you still own that PC. If …

In any environment, it is always nice to find a product that qualifies as one of those hidden gems you would never expect to find. With respect to travel, it may be a little known vacation spot.  Or it might be a local coffee shop that only a few know about in your town.  Or if you have recently bought …

TSSDR has recently moved back into the realm of enterprise and data center SSD reviews after having been absent from this space for some time.  Looking back in fact, our last enterprise report…true enterprise report…was way back in February 2018 by Sean Webster.  It was on the Intel SSD DC P4510 Gen3 Enterprise SSD and at that point in time, …

Samsung introduced an SSD last week that just happens to be a ‘Samsung first’.  It is the Samsung 9100 Pro Gen 5 SSD and we have reviewed this previously in its 4TB capacity.  Samsung has a reputation of being one of the best in the industry and we might bet that their sales reflect such by a healthy margin.  Deservedly, …

Nintendo Switch 2 is all the rage and if you are a gamer, the upgrade and understanding of the newest SDXC Express Memory is is an asset.  To so many, it reflects no more than a massive price jump in microSD cards.  To those in the know,  microSD Express speaks to a 3x jump in data game loads from that …
