The datAshur SD is the world’s first and only PIN authenticated, hardware encrypted USB drive that is designed to securely use iStorage’s MicroSD cards. With the datAshur SD, the ability to quickly and efficiently encrypt an iStorage microSD is now easier than ever. With this PIN-activated device, users and admins will no longer have to
The Dapustor Haishen3 H3200 is a power-efficient NVMe SSD meant for a range of different applications. Today, we will be looking at the ruler (E1.S) iteration of the H3200 line (specifically labeled as H3201), which comes in two capacities featuring 112-layer KIOXIA 3D enterprise NAND and a Marvell controller. We previously reviewed the DapuStor H3200—the
When it comes to learning or building out components for a homelab, the trash heap of tech known as eBay or NewEgg refurbs is a thing of greatness. Last year, we put together a VMware server setup article, for which we acquired an HP EliteDesk 800 G1 SFF. It had an SSD and a supported
When Intel® Optane™ persistent memory (PMem) first came out, we knew that it would radically alter the way business is done in the datacenter, but we couldn’t fully predict the number of ways in which it would. As is the case with all new technologies, we knew the initial use cases for persistent memory, but
The NetApp AFF A250 is an entry-level, end-to-end NVMe enterprise array. Embedded with NVMe SSDs on the back end and NVMe over FC host connectivity on the front end, the A250 is an incredible performer at an entry price point. This allows mid-size and small businesses to get the most out of their workloads at
We recently published an article, where we made the Lenovo ThinkEdge SE50 a pfSense router. We released this article under the guidance of the comments that were made on our TikTok video about the ThinkEdge SE50, where a few people wanted us to put pfSense on it. We thought that this would be a fun
The Supermicro Ultra SuperServer SYS-220U-TNR offers 22x hybrid 2.5” hot-swap drive bays, supporting NVMe, SATA, or SAS storage in a 2U rack system. As part of Supermicro’s X12 Ultra motherboards, this system features two third-generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors (Ice Lake) making it ideal for software-defined storage, cloud computing, and telecom use cases. The advanced
The Samsung PM1743 SSD is their first enterprise SSD featuring the new PCIe 5.0 (Gen5) interface, combining the company’s advanced sixth-generation V-NAND and a proprietary controller. Showcased at CES 2022, the new PCIe Gen5 interface offers a bandwidth of 32 gigatransfers per second (GT/s), doubling what we saw with PCIe Gen4 and making it a
The Netgear WAX630 is a tri-band wireless access point (WAP) and one of the newest editions to Netgear’s Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) network devices. The WAX630 is a WiFi 6 solution for small to medium-sized businesses, such as schools, hotels, restaurants, or even conference centers. The WAX630 is for those looking to get the highest performance possible
Offered in capacities up to 20TB, the Exos X20 is Seagate’s (and the industry’s) highest-capacity 3.5-inch enterprise hard drive. This CMR-based drive is targeted at cloud datacenters where it directly competes with the Western Digital Ultrastar DC HC560. We found lots to like about the Exos X20, including helium sealing, a 2.5M-hour MTBF, and a
