CES 2014 is off and running, and our first stop this morning was to the Emeror’s Ballroom of Caesar’s Palace to meet with Kingston Technology.  The very first thing that caught our eye, and definitely piqued our interest, was the HyperX Predator PCIe SSD.  As with other products in the HyperX line, Kingston has dressed the card up with a …

Our early morning meet with Avant Technology brought forward some new designs and Mushkin hardware, however, let’s get the bad news out of the way first.  If, like we had, you are waiting for those great LSI SandForce performance numbers to be revealed in their new SF3700 flash controller design,  don’t hold your breath too long because we may just …

So our friends at MyCE sent us an e-mail early this morning, detailing their exclusive discovery of Intel’s latest SSD roadmap, a roadmap that provides plenty of clues as to where Intel is going in the SSD realm.  First and foremost, congrats to JW and the MyCE crew for grabbing this one away from Chinese VR-Zone, the undisputed the ‘leaked …

Marketing of PCI Express SSDs has always been somewhat tricky as the fine balance between performance and value wasn’t much of a balance at all; performance being the obvious strongpoint of these cards.  The difficulty in manufacturing a consumer directed PCIe SSD, that can promise value, has most likely been the reason all haven’t jumped aboard the ‘PCI Express’. VisionTek …
