Transcend is announcing release of a new series of 2.5” and M.2 form factor industrial SSDs featuring 3D TLC NAND flash memory.  The performance of 3D TLC NAND is comparable to that of Planar (2D) MLC NAND, yet at a more competitive price point.  This newest series of industrial SSDs also features SLC caching, a RAID engine, low-density parity check …

Probably one of the most amusing things that we are seeing at Computex 2017 is the fact that several manufacturers are sporting very similarly constructed SSDs, with different stickers.  It is reminiscent of how the industry started with many 3rd party sellers simply rebranding Intel’ first X-25M SATA 2 SSD almost 10 years ago. All have a very common theme. …
