Just when we thought the news of the Innogrit SSD Controller was going to take over the SSD industry, watch out!  ADATA not only had their sample of the ADATA Innogrit based Sage on display and running at 7GB/s, but they also had two other SSDs on display that were both Gen 4×4 and SMI products… one that listed specs …

Wehave been in the game a longtime.  Things seem to cycle.  I remember years ago when we were at FMS and SMI entered the scene with their newest SSD controller and we pushed for release.  It was much the same with Phison and I can remember speaking to them at one point and saying they were great at showing upcoming …

USB 3.2 Gen 2 with Type-C has become the norm as of late and more systems these days are being sold with USB-C or Thunderbolt included.  Simply put, this means faster transfer speeds between your system and external storage, this storage being bus powered and not requiring a separate adapter and cable to power the device.  ADATA has recently released …

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 …

ADATA is announcing their latest external solid-state drive (SSD) offering, designated as the SD600Q.  Their newest external SSD offers excellent performance, delivering sequential read and write speeds of up to 440MB/s, which is some 4X the performance of external mechanical hard drives (HDDs). The SD600Q features 3D NAND Flash memory to provide its excellent performance and superior reliability.  The SD600Q …

If we look back at the last few months of SSD progression, it becomes rather evident that there is just a bit of a fist fight between competing SSD controller manufacturers, SMI and Phison.  SMI has maintained a solid footprint in the industry for the last few years but most recently, Phison released its 5012-E12 controller which has gained quite …

ADATA is announcing the launch of their new XPG SX6000 Pro PCIe Gen3x4 M.2 2280 SSD.  The combination of 3D NAND Flash and the NVMe 1.3 protocol creates an SSD that delivers excellent performance and up to 1TB of capacity.  The SX6000 Pro’s single-sided design results in a thinner-than-standard M.2 2280 SSD, providing a higher level of compatibility and a …

A bit amusing this Computex was our completing a briefing with ADATA only to return once again to receive further confirmation on a bit of information that truly shows the capacity value of next gen 96 layer memory.  On display was ADATA’ newest NGSFF M.3 form factor SSD, the IM3P33EC Enterprise SSD which is a PCIe Gen 3 x 4 …

Today, we are going to take a look at ADATA’s newest top dog, the XPG SX8200. The XPG SX8200 was built for high demand applications including multimedia editing, gaming, rendering, and ADATA even states overclocking, although we’re not quite sure what benefits this has for overclocking vs other SSDs. This SSD is one of many NVMe M.2 SSDs they make …
