The first NVMe SSDs compatible with the latest PCI Express standard are now available from CFD Gaming. Even though platforms supporting this technology have been available to consumers for over a year, SSD manufacturers have not been in a hurry. Even months after AMD and Intel unveiled their latest and updated platforms with expanded support for [...]
Today follows the last part of this little hobby project, but the end comes with a bang (metaphorically): Ryzen 7, 16GB RAM and a proud 32TB of storage. I had already teased the slightly extended version of the normal NAS, now it can finally show what it can do! The title already gave it away, for this system, which can also be used as a server [...]
With the MP600 GS, Corsair rounds off the SSD portfolio in the solid mid-range as well and meanwhile also benefits a bit from the price drop. Starting at around 10 cents per GB, the price is now just under 8 cents. Corsair offers a somewhat more frugal M.2 SSD with PCIe 4.0 in the form of the MP600 GS, including the cheaper Phison E21T controller [...]
Does it really always have to be the fastest data medium on paper and what do older SATA devices in the form of a 2.5″ SSD or a 3.5″ hard drive perform? Do we really need the latest product pushed on us by marketing, or can it be a few levels lower? You can argue about the sense and nonsense of the products, but there are still enough [...]
Let’s be honest: is there currently an SSD with 2 TB of storage available for under 50 Euros? If it were up to certain eBay “top sellers,” it probably would. This contradicts the search results in reputable stores, but maybe the little technology miracle is taking place just outside of the usual big online shops. For example, if [...]
We seamlessly follow up on the last article about my 3D-printed NAS, then today it’s all about commissioning and also finally performance testing. If you haven’t read the last article yet, you should definitely catch up on it. In this one, it does get very software-heavy. Preparations As already announced, I decided to use [...]
Those who value data security will certainly like today’s article and the video of the hot stone. We are publicly destroying a not quite cheap 980 PRO 2 TB SSD today on behalf of Samsung’s warranty department. The correspondence, which I have shortened and anonymized in the article for legal reasons, also shows why it absolutely had to [...]
A little over a year ago, I presented an ITX gaming system here whose case came entirely from the 3D printer. Since then there were from me now and then smaller topics in this direction, today I present you my next big project with a small footprint. However, instead of a gaming PC for your own leisure time, it becomes rather useful and practical [...]

I had already tested the MSI SPATIUM M480 with 2TB capacity, but now MSI has relaunched this SSD – with a trendy “Play” abbreviation in the name and the possibility to also install this storage device in a Sony PS5. The SPATIUM M480 and M480 Play also let it rip, because a good abd fast controller for the 2 TB NAND memory [...]
With the Spatium M450, MSI also enters the path of cheaper NVMe SSDs with PCIe 4.0, which do not rely on the vulnerable and unloved QLC flash memory, but on a new, simplified concept. This is because certain additional costs still stand in the way of the large distribution of PCIe 4.0 SSDs. However, in order to be able to reduce the costs not only [...]

With the SanDisk Professional G-Drive SSD 2TB, Western Digital offers a shock-proof and also dust-proof according to IP67 as well as (at least for a short time) protected against accidental submersion, which fits in pretty much every trouser pocket, even if it is quite narrow. Such a thing is called rugged design, so it is a kind of BMX bike among [...]

MSI announces the launch of its own Solid State Drive (SSD) product line, SPATIUM. The initial product offering will include the M480, M470 and M370. Supporting PCIe Gen4 and Gen3, depending on the model, all NVMe SSDs feature the compact M.2 2280 form factor to fit desktop motherboards and laptops. On these SSDs, MSI says it’s putting high [...]
Patriot has once again made it exciting and even issued an extra NDA for this SUPERSONIC RAGE PRIME 1TB USB 3.2 stick. I must also preface this by saying that I had to do this test without a communicated MSRP, which might put some things into perspective later on. But I was really fascinated by this stick in many parts of this test, because it [...]
