A short time ago we did a review of the MemBlaze Pblaze7 7A40 Gen5 Enterprise SSD and this SSD contained  T-Head Zhenyue 510 (also known as TH7700) 16-channel Gen5 SSD controller, along with 8-pieces of YMTC Xtacking 3.0 (X3-9070) 232-layer 3D TLC NAND flash memory capable of running at up to 2400MT/s.  That SSD was a one drive write per …

If we look back several years, one couldn’t get an enterprise level SSD without direct company contact, and putting a face to business…maybe even with a firm handshake.  Things have changed and, as much as many might think easy access may be good or bad, we are seeing ‘off the shelf design’ far more often these days.  Right now, one …

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 …

Dapustor is a little known SSD manufacturing company that is based in China, was founded in 2016 and has a present workforce of over 400 members throughout the country.  It’s forte is high-end enterprise solid-state drives, SOC, and edge computing-related products and it presently holds in excess of 156 patents, which is to say they aren’t just another SSD component …

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.
