Creative professionals, data scientists, and others with data-intensive applications are known to invest extravagantly in their workstations. And for good reason, these platforms are designed to execute tasks quickly, creating immediate business value. All of this work creates a new problem for storage. There’s either not enough fast flash in workstations, or hardware/software complexity makes

The RevoDrive 350 is redesigned from the ground up with updated drivers to enable maximum performance and efficiency as well as taking advantage of new hardware design. The RevoDrive 350 is a PCIe integral storage solution, which is often used by creative

The OCZ RevoDrive Hybrid is new entry for OCZ in the growing caching storage segment. The main thrust of caching is to get SSD speeds over the span of a larger capacity hard drive. With the RevoDrive Hybrid, OCZ is attempting to accomplish this goal by delivering a single integrated solution of a 1TB hard

Over the summer we reviewed a pre-production version of the 480GB OCZ RevoDrive 3 X2 SSD. Even though the hardware and firmware were not final builds, the RevoDrive 3 X2 was still incredibly impressive, given the speedy PCIe interface and four SandForce SF-2281 processors. We’ve finally been able to log enough time with the production

OCZ recently announced availability of the 1TB RevoDrive Hybrid, which marries a 1TB 2.5" hard drive with a 100GB OCZ SSD and caching software to deliver SSD like speeds across the larger storage volume. The hybrid idea of course isn’t new, Seagate’s Momentus XT has shipped over one million units and there are several client

When it comes to desktop-based high-performance storage, to get to the bleeding edge there are certain limits you have to work around. A single SATA SSD, no matter how fast it is, will be held back by the 6.0Gb/s bandwidth. To get around this, many opt for the PCIe interface, either by using a RAID
