Solid-State Drive Reviews

Starting with the build quality of the PNY XLR8 Pro we have a drive which uses one of the thickest and therefore most robust feeling cases around. It really does feel solid while maintaining a reasonably low weight. Inside we find a decent level of...

I really like the idea of mSATA solid state drives. While they have not really caught on that much on the desktop market now that M.2 is here, they have great applications in laptops and smaller form factor PCs like the Gigabyte BRIX that we recently...

The Intel 750 Series is easily the quickest solid state drive we’ve ever reviewed. Its performance is an incredible leap forward and, more importantly, its use of the new NVMe standard means the drive is fully bootable and operates as a plug-and-play...

Over two weeks of everyday use, including a couple business trips, I was impressed with the X300's balance of size, weight and power. It never let me down, and its scores of 396 and 3,415 on the PassMark Performance Test 6.1 and PCMark 05 benchmarks...

Samsung’s 830 Series 512GB SSD is an exemplary solid-state drive, able to boast very decent sequential reading and writing speeds. Its controller seems to be tuned to favour reads over write speeds in small file juggling, but overall all-round...

is with the ADATA's Nobility N002 well defined. However, its performance is according to the manufacturer 200 MB/s during reading and 170 MB/s during writing, which is slower than the OCZ Enyo and its current price of 360.- euro is clearly above our...

All in all, while it is an improvement over the S8, the S10 (and by extension, the Neutron XT) lacks a 'wow' factor that would really help it stand out from the rest. The TLC NAND support in the S10 is certainly a nice feature, but I don't want to...

In a sea saturated with solid state drives from every memory manufacturer under the sun, the Kingston HyperX Savage 240GB is one product that stands out -- literally. It does not strike me as common for an SSD to look good (Not saying they are usually...

With an RRP of around $550, the 256GB 470 Series SSG certainly isn’t cheap. However, what you do get is a solid, well-balanced shot of performance in not only read-rates, as most SSDs (and indeed faster HDDs) manage, but in write-rates, which is a...

SandForce sets aside more NAND capacity than most controllers for spare area. While Intel, Marvell, Samsung and others default to ~7% of total NAND capacity for spare area, SandForce is almost double that. The difference boils down to RAISE,...
