  • Med facit i hand kan vi både säga att mycket har hänt på SSD-marknaden samtidigt som mycket förblir som det var. Nykomlingen Sandforce har bevisat att de kan bygga en otroligt innovativ lagringskontroller som uppvisar prestanda vi sällan trodde var mö...

  • Abstract:  Kingstons drev er bygget op over Intel-teknologi. Men dette lille drev udnytter ikke kontrollerchippens ti kanaler, og derfor er læsehastigheden halveret. Vi mangler også understøttelse for Intels Trim, men det kommer måske i fremtidige drev?
