For those that have never heard of SK hynix, they are one of the big guys, believe it or not.  They stand right beside companies such as Samsung, Micron, Kioxia (formerly Toshiba), and SanDisk/WD.  They make NAND flash memory. In fact, they are the worlds 2nd largest memory manufacturer. SK hynix has been in the flash, and more to the …

Less than a week ago Canon introduced their newest camera lineup which was highlighted by the Canon EOS mirror-less R5 Digital camera.  To anyone who is familiar with cameras, this may be the release of the decade.  It is a 45 megapixel camera that will shoot video as large as 8K/30 or 4K/120 with RAW.  Myself, I am moving up …

It is not often that a new SSD company makes such an impact in today’s technology world, especially when it comes to SSDs. Sabrent has.  As much as SSD companies have come and gone, those that own the fabs have had the biggest advantage as they not only control flash pricing, but also, its availability.  To clarify, a fab is …

In our hands today is one of the few PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSDs available in the consumer flash industry. Surprisingly, its brand name is that of a relatively new company (at least when it comes to flash);  Sabrent.  PCIe 4.0 is the latest and greatest bringing data transfer speeds 5GB/s, and as media professionals know, these speeds  are everything …

It has been a few years now, but thinking back I am sure there are those that remember the hard drive and all that went along with it.  Slow start times, heat, noise and an all around much slower PC experience, especially for those that work in media.  The largest jump we have seen in storage is without a doubt …

It has been a bit since we posted a review on a 2.5″ notebook SATA3 SSD and that comes with the territory I guess.  We get caught up with the latest and greatest, and we are always amazed that M.2 SSDs the size of a stick of gum can reach mind blowing speeds of NVMe at 3.5GB/s.  Nevertheless, SATA3 SSDs …

Since the beginning of time… ok maybe not that long ago but since SSDs were introduced to the consumer, we all knew that a time would come where SATA just might near extinction.  Long story short for those who aren’t sure of what we are talking about…  SATA is a protocol which was originally created for magnetic hard drives and …

It is not often that we dedicate the time to looking at an SSD that has been reworked simply through firmware, but our review today of the Western Digital Black SN750 NVMe SSD is just that.  Physically, this SSD holds the same level of components as the WD Black/SanDisk Extreme pro Report we did just about a year ago.  We …

It is always great to be approached by new companies at tech events, and such was the case with Asura at CES a few weeks back, a company still in stealth mode yet hoping that we might take a preliminary look at their newest Genesis Xtreme NVMe SSD.  We did a quick release at the time and, well we were …

Mushkin has been updating infusing its product line with 3D NAND, but that’s not all they have been up to. While doing that, they have been pushing to make SSDs cheap again. Their latest offering, the Mushkin Source, is selling for as low as $28.99 for the 120GB and just $158.99 for the 1TB model! If that’s not something to …
