Released today, the Intel SSD 660p Series is the company’s first client SSD to ship with 64-layer QLC (quad-level cell) 3D NAND. What this means to the end user is a less expensive SSD that has a reasonable performance profile. As will be true for most QLC SSD launches, the conversation is going to be about finally having

The Samsung PM1725a is a relatively minor update to the PM1725 NVMe SSD that was launched in the summer of 2015. Targeted at server and array vendors, the PM1725a slots in as a high-performance option that’s also available in relatively high capacities for NVMe SSDs with the range topping out at 6.4TB. The PM1725a features Samsung’s 48-layer TLC V-NAND and Samsung’s own

Intel’s Optane SSD DC P4800X series was launched back in March of 2017 with the promise of bringing a new storage class memory (SCM) media called 3D XPoint (Intel branded as Optane) to market. The P4800X launched as both a traditional 2.5″ NVMe drive (U.2) as well as a PCIe add-in card. Initial capacities started out at 375GB with

ADATA is calling the XPG SX8200 its fastest consumer SSD to date. The new drive is an M.2 form factor that leverages the PCIe Gen3 x4 interface (NVMe 1.3 supported) as well as second generation 64-Layer 3D NAND. ADATA gives quoted speeds of 3.2GB/s sequential read, 1.7GB/s sequential write, and for random performance the drive

There’s little doubt that Amazon is the leader when it comes to a variety of cloud services offered through their EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) web service. With a relatively simple provisioning process and the ability to easily scale instances and storage needs up or down, EC2 aims to deliver all the promise of the cloud

The Samsung 970 Pro 1TB is the largest capacity model of the company’s newest high-performing consumer M.2 NVMe SSD line. We previously reviewed the 512GB version, and though it had a strong showing, we were expecting it to be a bit faster. To show best-case performance we’ve wrapped up testing of the larger 1TB model,

The PowerEdge R640 is a scalable 1U rack server designed for computing and storage via a 2-socket platform. Described as a balance between performance, cost and density, the R640 is built to handle workloads from a range of different data center use cases–particularly dense software-defined storage, service providers, application tier, dense private cloud, virtualization and High Performance Computing (HPC). Moreover, Dell has built the PowerEdge

戴尔易安信PowerEdge R640 是一款可扩展的1U机架式服务器， 设计用于通过双路平台进行计算和存储。R640被描述为性能、成本和密度之间的一种平衡， 它用于处理一系列不同数据中心用例带来的工作负载，特别是密集的软件定义存储、服务提供商、应用层、密集的私有云、虚拟化和 高性能计算(HPC)等。 此外，戴尔还将PowerEdge R640构建为一个易于部署的服务器，它可以使用戴尔易安信VxFlex Ready Nodes 无缝地 从3个节点扩展到1000多个节点，用于软件定义的存储。

The Dell Precision 7530 is a high-end mobile workstation designed to excel during graphic or data-heavy applications. To emphasize its capabilities, Dell boldly claims that it is the world’s most powerful and first "Ready for VR" 15-inch mobile workstation to hit the market. That said, users can certainly outfit the 7530 with some pretty impressive
