It is not often that we dedicate the time to looking at an SSD that has been reworked simply through firmware, but our review today of the Western Digital Black SN750 NVMe SSD is just that. Physically, this SSD holds the same level of components as the WD Black/SanDisk Extreme pro Report we did just about a year ago. We …

It is always great to be approached by new companies at tech events, and such was the case with Asura at CES a few weeks back, a company still in stealth mode yet hoping that we might take a preliminary look at their newest Genesis Xtreme NVMe SSD. We did a quick release at the time and, well we were …

It has been awhile now since the Crucial P1 NVMe has been released and, as guilty as I am, this SSD has sat on the shelf for some time. It has gained some great reviews for its pricing and speed increase from a SATA drive; this SSD destined as truly a consumer marketed product. My apologies ahead to Crucial as …

Not to often that we have to eat crow (figuratively speaking) but our review today is just that. A few months ago, we reviewed the JMicron Type-C NVMe M.2 SSD to USB 3.1 Gen 2 adapter and quoted it as being ‘not quite ready for prime time.’ Simply, I was wrong.

In fact, when the SSD just started breaking out so many years ago, it wouldn’t be unusual for two SSDs to be nothing more than a different brand sticker. Absolutely true.

With specifications listing performance at 2250MB/s read and 1700MB/s write with 380K read and 190K write IOPS, this SSD is very impressive, …

A few months back we posted a review on the latest and greatest Phison PS5012-E12 NVMe controller and our first look at this device was no less than impressive. With throughput reaching 3.4GB/s and IOPS breaking the half million mark, the consensus was that it could be capable of top marks when the finished product hit consumer, oem and even …

We have had this sitting on out Test Bench for some time and I thought I might do a little playing with it and throw a few tests out there. It is a JMicron USB 3.1 Gen 2 to PCIe/NVMe adapter and it uses a Type-C connector. This adapter accepts a M.2 SSD up to a 2280 form factor and …

M.2 SSDs have been out for some time and, well quite frankly, they still amazing the heck out of me whenever a new one is released. I mean think about it. An M.2 SSD is the size of a stick of gum, weighs less than a AAA battery, yet can store 2 million pictures if each was around 500k. Fifteen …

Silicon Motion designs some of the best performing SSD controllers out. SSDs like the ADATA S11, Intel 760p, and HP EX920 deliver incredible performance and value with the SM2262 powering them. But, today we have in our hands something a bit better than that, a little gem if you will. Today, we have Silicon Motion’s latest PCIe 3.1 x4 NVMe …
