StorageReview has been testing enterprise storage and infrastructure hardware for over 25 years. During that time, we have reviewed petabytes of data across drives, dozens of all-flash arrays, countless switches, servers, and networking gear. We have benchmarked hardware that costs more than most people’s houses. What we have never done, not once, is properly label

We’ve attended many events over the years, but something about NerdioCon feels different. Maybe it’s the focus. Maybe it’s the people. Or perhaps it’s that when you’re interested in Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) and Windows 365 (W365), you find yourself surrounded by hundreds of others who care just as much as you do. Whatever the

AMD has released its MLPerf Inference v6.0 results, positioning the Instinct MI355X GPU as a scalable inference platform across single-node, multinode, and heterogeneous deployments. The submission extends beyond incremental gains by adding new workloads, demonstrating cluster-scale throughput exceeding 1 million tokens per second, and validating reproducibility across a growing partner ecosystem. CDNA 4 Architecture Targets

Dell Technologies has announced several updates to its PowerProtect portfolio, focusing on management simplicity, integrated artificial intelligence, and expanded hardware options for mid-sized environments. These enhancements target the growing complexity of distributed workloads across on-premises, edge, and cloud infrastructure. PowerProtect Data Manager Evolution The latest iteration of PowerProtect Data Manager introduces a unified dashboard that

NVIDIA has published results for MLPerf Inference v6.0, highlighting system-level gains driven by tight co-design across hardware, software, and models. The company positions inference throughput and token economics as the primary metrics for AI factory performance, moving beyond peak accelerator specifications to measured output under real workloads. In this round, systems built on NVIDIA Blackwell

Veeam has launched the Veeam Intelligence MCP Server, designed to bring backup, recovery, malware, and compliance information into broader enterprise IT operations. The server is built to give teams a single conversational interface for day-to-day operations, planned infrastructure changes, and incident response, with customer control over deployment, data exposure, and integration with AI clients. Veeam

The PowerEdge R5715 is the second part of Dell’s SMB-focused extension to the 17th Generation PowerEdge family, starting with different priorities than its 1U sibling. Where the R4715 optimizes for compute density and core-per-rack-unit efficiency, the R5715 is built around storage capacity and I/O expandability in a 2U single-socket footprint. Readers coming from our R4715

Dell’s 17th Generation PowerEdge family is already well-established, and with the R4715 and R5715, the lineup now targets the SMB and midmarket segments more intentionally than before. Both servers are single-socket platforms built on the same 5th Generation AMD EPYC foundation as the broader 17th Gen family. They are tuned for organizations where right-sized core

Dell has introduced a broad refresh of its commercial portfolio, covering notebooks, desktops, monitors, and peripherals, with the update centered on the new Dell Pro family across Premium, Pro 7, Pro 5, and Pro 3 tiers. The announcement covers Intel and AMD notebook options, a new Pro 5 Micro desktop, expanded Pro P monitor offerings
