Because of what SSDs are, solid-state drives (SSDs) are a core component of any modern PC, whether it’s a traditional SATA SSD or a more modern NVMe drive. Knowing the difference between these two ...

Solid-state drives are universally faster than old-school hard-disk drives, but not all SSDs are the same. They come in different shapes and sizes, have different maximum speeds, and as you might ...

It’s probably been a while since you’ve dealt with your computer’s motherboard. You don’t have to, as long as you simply sit at your PC or notebook and carry out everyday tasks. However, if you want ...

PCIe SSDs are newer and more technologically advanced than SATA SSDs, but that doesn't mean users should choose PCIe SSDs over SATA SSDs every time. Both types of SSDs have certain advantages and ...

SATA SSDs aren't the flashiest solid state drives out there anymore. We've got M.2 flash storage that fits easily into PCIe slots on your motherboard, and that sleek SSD format is quickly taking over ...

When 2.5-inch SATA SSDs finally became affordable, the popularity of hard drives naturally saw a huge dip. Switching from a hard drive to a SATA SSD promised an instant boost to system responsiveness, ...

I know M.2 drives are faster - but my WD Black also run at least 20 degrees hotter - measured by the temp of the heat sink - than my WD Blue, which stays at room temperature. The speed gain seems ...

I can’t believe we’re recommending SATA SSDs, but in the context of the Enterprise data center the DC600M is an excellent choice. And oddly with that use case, not an excessively expensive option ...

While PCIe-based NVMe solid-state drives (SSDs) are certainly the most desirable NAND storage in terms of speed, 2.5" SATA III SSDs too offer a substantial improvement over spinning hard disk drives ...

While PCIe-based NVMe solid-state drives (SSDs) are certainly the most desirable NAND storage in terms of speed, 2.5" SATA III SSDs too offer a substantial improvement over spinning hard disk drives ...

A silly question / idle thought for you guys: Most modern SATA SSDs are bumping up against the 500MB/s bulk transfer limit. Could a SATA 2.5" SSD have two SATA ports (and two SATA cables) and be able ...
