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 …

This report examines the Crucial P5 NVMe SSD which has just been released in the past month or so.  It is a bit of an odd duck as we are seeing PCIe 3 SSDs settle with the latest and greatest in PCIe 4.0 entering the market. Historically, Crucial has been known to sit in the weeds with their SSD releases, …

A few weeks back, we did a review on the ADATA Swordfish NVMe, a new release SSD that was intended as a value solution for the every day PC user, possibly transitioning to the SSD.  That SSD was accredited with our Top Value award as it provided decent performance at a low price, and with a 5-year limited warranty to …

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 …

Every now and then we run across an SSD that makes us smile.  It is usually something that was received and didn’t get looked at right away and something that really opens our eyes when we finally get it on the test bench.  With respect to PCIe 3.0 M.2 SSDs, it would have to be something that gives the Samsung …

I find it a bit amusing that some 13 years since our first SSD review, flash technology is still at a point that we are trying to move the consumer from hard drive to SSD.  Knowing what we know about the difference between the two, It simply doesn’t make sense to me that PCs, especially laptops, are still selling with …

So we are going to take a look at a product today that has been out for some time.  I have actually had this in my hands for several months and never reviewed it as my first provided sample wasn’t a review sample.  The reason I wanted to review it today is because it is a decent example of portable …

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 …

I am somewhat of a camera buff.  I love photography and I carry a Canon 5D Mk IV, that even I will admit is much to far ahead of my skill set.  My wife.  Well, she used to take incredible pleasure in reminding me how many all inclusive vacations this camera cost.  That was until I started shooting family weddings. …

There has been a great deal of change in SSD storage within recent years and it leaves much of us confused.  The core of this change has to do with a continuous upgrade cycle of NAND flash memory which seems happen every few months, resulting in new SSD products and many not understanding which SSD is the best for their …
