ADATA is Taiwan’s largest manufacturer of flash memory and DRAM memory for computers and so it is not surprising that ADATA also offers a low-cost product to poach something in the area of beginners, upgrades and conversions. It’s interesting to note that you take a slightly different approach, the usual suspects with Toshiba 3D NAND [...]

Since I have switched most systems in the lab and private sector to M.2 NVMe SSDs and also operate everything in a nice mixed way across the PCIe versions, one can, however, notice differences in parallel systems with identical software and the same workloads, even if some things are much less sensational than it is often spread by PR [...]
Toshiba became KIOXIA and now the EXCERIA series is presented, which moves in three directions: the normal consumer, enthusiasts and the upgradeers with SATA option. Some time ago, the RC500 was introduced, which even uses the same controller and is also available in stores as an NVMe-SSD for the normal consumer. EXCERIA (without Plus) is now to [...]
Our forum member "Mr. Gurke" contributed a user news today and wrote about the Indiegogo project. Of course you should be happy to share in this and therefore now like to leave the sole word to the forum activist and then I'm out… Do you sometimes feel that way? You only want to look up something on the big internet very [...]
What Unibos (a brand of the Czech distributor Bostar) has come up with seems conclusive at first glance, albeit a bit niche: a portable and stable case for an NVMe-SSD, which you can bring to top performance via Thunderbolt 3 on suitable devices. Unfortunately, the whole thing excludes all USB generations, so that the case cannot be used [...]
With the VPN100, Patriot recently launched another 1TB NVMe SSD, which relies on well-known components, so that i don't give up any puzzles in terms of assembly and which I had already tested before. But to use the current prices as a benchmark is going to be difficult, because the street price is running amok pretty much every SSD. A fast 1TB [...]
The brave clone sheep Dolly was yesterday, today come the NVMe Clone Warriors. In parallel with the launch of AMD’s new X570 platform, the first NVMe SSDs came on the market to support PCIe Generation 4.0. Well, the selection is still quite modest and it will be much more if you take a closer look at the competitor products. Some time ago I [...]
Micron's latest earnings report also includes information that the company will soon begin production of High Bandwidth Memory (HBM2). Although it seems a little late for this, Micron's presence in the storage market is likely to leave a positive impression on the end customer. Micron announces that it is working with Samsung and SK Hynix [...]
The T-Force Xtreme series had been announced for some time, but now, in January 2020, the fastest modules will finally be available on the market. I was able to get one of the packs with the T-Force DDR4 4000 Xtreem ARGB and of course also test the memory bulb extensively. These kits made of 8GB modules come with three different speed gradations [...]
Good and cheap? With Amazon bargains in this rather unknown provider one should be quite careful and so I have also thought several times to buy the sSD tested today in the first place. A fast 1-TB-NVMe for less than 120 Euros is not overpriced apart from Crucial's usual price breakers and the product description was also rather positive. In [...]
Toshiba recently introduced the RC500, a non-consumer-only NVMe SSD, which is now available in stores. The M.2-2280 form factor makes it suitable for most of the more up-to-date motherboards and the street price of around 80 euros from is quite interesting for some upgraders who don't want or can swing the big ball right away. Toshiba uses its [...]
The largest possible CPU on the smallest possible motherboard, best still remove all the heat sinks of the voltage regulators and that's the basis for the next YouTube orgy. Of course, I couldn't completely escape my curiosity about the possible limits, but in the end one should also be aware of his responsibility as a medium and not panic the [...]
Update from Oct 31, 2019 8:00 PM Besterino and DerHecht won. Congratulations! The winning notification was sent to the winners via PN and now we will wait and see who will also report within the deadline. Otherwise (again) will be redrawn! Original article Yes, you read this quite correctly, we'll let the loyal community this time hardware [...]
When testing the new AMD Ryzen 3000 CPUs, we found a significant difference in write rates between the R9 3900X and the R7 3700X in the aidA64 storage benchmarks. After initial astonishment and theoretical assumptions, AMD has now confirmed that it is indeed a conscious choice of architecture.
We live in a world where security researchers scrutinise many complaints. Supposedly leak-proof cups are thrown around violently, allegedly unbreakable objects are catapulted against walls and supposedly indestructible devices are torn apart by security researchers every day on a trial basis. Some products keep what they promise, but Pen Test [...]
What lasts for a long time will be really good? With too much euphoria it is always such a thing and so I spoil it at the beginning: it is not a revolution, but has become a solid NVMe SSD for the M.2 slot. But it took more than a year between the announcement at CES 2018 and the real launch. And that with the prices? At the moment, pretty much [...]
Corsair upgrades its Dominator series with the Dominator Platinum RGB DDR4 3600 (and other clock rates) technically and visually again, so that a test seemed quite convenient to me to question it. What all this then brings in practice must be proven by the test scenario, which is deliberately designed in a practical way, because all synthetic [...]
We have learned that Micron intends to launch its brand new Octa Level (OLC) NAND either in the first quarter or at the latest in the second quarter of 2019, i.e. in the first half of the year! What would be so exciting about it? If Micron's Octa-Level OLC NAND memory is really available so soon, it would significantly exceed the speed of [...]
With a portable hard drive and a fast memory stick, iStorage with diskAshur Pro2 and datAshur Pro offers something like smart data safes for the secret (data) carrier of the world. And that's what already looks like a safe with the fancy number keypad and promises security, it is. We'll test it...
5 Keys draw – The raffle is complete and the 10 winners have been drawn! First of all: the legal process was and is of course excluded as always! The closing date for participation was 06.09.2018 at 23:59. Duplicate entries were considered a violation and, to be fair, could not be taken into account. The received mails were routed to a [...]
With many Intenso products, it's like a miracle bag. Most of the time they are very cheap, but you never know what exactly is in there. You have to take a closer look, so as not to make the famous mis-purchase, where cheap always means buying twice. I came across this bargain by chance while browsing Amazon and just bought it. It can be yes [...]
Our French colleague Yannick Guerrini contributed a large part of the content in today's test and, as we are all on the same wavelength and also want to expand our strategic partnership in Europe, there will certainly be many more articles in the future. developed in close cooperation. I would like to put this ahead of the test, because we [...]
Whether you really want to throw your hard drive with schmackes on the concrete, then run over with the evil diesel, shower and finally shampoo, that is up to everyone in good conscience. The Apacher AC730 with 1 TB of storage capacity should be able to put this away. Military Grade? At least the Toshiba HDD (1TB, 5400 rpm) installed with us is in [...]
What is white, fast and in its class still (with) the cheapest offer? With the KFA2 Hall Of Fame Extreme DDR4-4000, you can not only visually finely upgrade your system, but also accelerate it. What this in the Praxi... Memory Tests Intel The nice thing, of course, is that we can fully extend the clock rates of the memory kit. The question [...]
