High density, high performance, and reliability are three of the most critical factors in achieving data center excellence, and Solidigm may have delivered on all three. For years, the industry has pursued improved rack designs, with power efficiency and cooling at the center of that effort.

We’re entering an era where smaller, faster, and higher-capacity SSDs are no longer luxuries; they’re necessities. I experienced this firsthand last year while shopping for a new ultrabook. My shortlist of must-haves was clear: a compact form factor, support for at least a 4TB SSD, and PCIe 4.0 performance. Ideally, I wanted PCIe Gen5 speeds, but nothing on the market …

Our report today takes a close look at Corsair’s latest flagship SSD, the MP700 Pro XT, marking the first industry release of a drive featuring the Phison PS5028-E28 Gen5 NVMe 8-channel controller.

This is a KILLER price for a relatively new SSD on the market… and ONLY for Amazon’s Prime Big Deals Days.  Consider this!  The SSD review is the first to get review SSD review samples and we only reviewed this in May of this year.  Check out the review here! This SSD is paired with the best components on the …

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, …

Patriot memory has been around since 1985 and were one of the early companies to have provided The SSD Review with an SSD sample for review.  It was the Patriot Torqx 2 SATA 2 128GB SSD and that was back on 14 May 2011…14 plus years ago. I reviewed that SSD and had to laugh when checking it out once …
