Lexar has done it again… and this time, Sony Alpha and FX series owners finally have reason to celebrate. For years, they’ve been like kids watching from the sidelines while Canon EOS R5 users like myself enjoyed the benefits of faster CFExpress Type-B storage. But that all changes now. Thanks to Lexar, Type-A users are catching up in a big …

A short time ago we did a review of the MemBlaze Pblaze7 7A40 Gen5 Enterprise SSD and this SSD contained  T-Head Zhenyue 510 (also known as TH7700) 16-channel Gen5 SSD controller, along with 8-pieces of YMTC Xtacking 3.0 (X3-9070) 232-layer 3D TLC NAND flash memory capable of running at up to 2400MT/s.  That SSD was a one drive write per …

If we look back several years, one couldn’t get an enterprise level SSD without direct company contact, and putting a face to business…maybe even with a firm handshake.  Things have changed and, as much as many might think easy access may be good or bad, we are seeing ‘off the shelf design’ far more often these days.  Right now, one …

We have in our hot little hands the latest and greatest LaCie Rugged SSD4 and I am personally thinking this SSD may have been made just for me. My true love in life is wildlife photography and I have found myself in just about every weather condition and situations many would never. And yes I have been up a tree …

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 …

In any environment, it is always nice to find a product that qualifies as one of those hidden gems you would never expect to find. With respect to travel, it may be a little known vacation spot.  Or it might be a local coffee shop that only a few know about in your town.  Or if you have recently bought …

Samsung introduced an SSD last week that just happens to be a ‘Samsung first’.  It is the Samsung 9100 Pro Gen 5 SSD and we have reviewed this previously in its 4TB capacity.  Samsung has a reputation of being one of the best in the industry and we might bet that their sales reflect such by a healthy margin.  Deservedly, …

Nintendo Switch 2 is all the rage and if you are a gamer, the upgrade and understanding of the newest SDXC Express Memory is is an asset.  To so many, it reflects no more than a massive price jump in microSD cards.  To those in the know,  microSD Express speaks to a 3x jump in data game loads from that …

Yesterday we posted our first ever report on the ADATA Premier Extreme 256GB microSDXC Express Card and it provided us with data transfer speeds over 800MB/s in a card smaller than a dime.  This report followed a report we did on the Silicon Motion SM2708 SDXC Express controller some time ago, the same controller found within that microSD Express card.  …
