Every now and then a product comes across our desk that we just know is going to be special…maybe even a game changer.  Such is the case with the newest Micron 2550 DRAMless PCIe 4.0 Client M.2 SSD that we are testing today and, quite frankly, it is hard to believe there is really so much in such a small …

Well, Sabrent seems to have pulled off something that we don’t expect to see any other manufacturer do anytime soon.  Not Samsung.  Not Crucial.  Not Intel, Toshiba, Lexar, Team Group, Transcend, Mushkin, XPG, Corsair, WD, Seagate, ADATA, Corsair and not Silicon Power.  Sabrent has thrown down the gauntlet and we want all to know that we are willing to accept …

The latest and greatest in SSDs is PCIe 4 and the extreme performance that comes with it, presently showing off speeds up to 7GB/s.  Accompanying these high power and rather expensive SSDs is something that we’ve really never had to tackle in the SSD industry, at least not to this extent…heat.

Sustained write disk performance is not advertised with most CFexpress Type B cards today and, in fact, it is not common whatsoever in the flash industry.  As much as it is not spoken of, consumer SSDs, SD cards, compact flash cards, and even the latest CFexpress cards, are marketed and sold according to their ‘peak’ read and write data transfer …

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 …

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 …

Crucial X8 Portable SSD Crucial’s next step into the consumer market includes a sleek-looking portable SSD, the …
