Although the Raspberry Pi 5 has a PCIe interface, it doesn’t have a slot for a PCIe SSD. There’s now a whole range of plug-in boards (HATs = Hardware Attached on Top) for retrofitting SSDs. They ...
On this page we want to share some thoughts on how to increase the lifespan and performance of your SSD. But first, the installation. Installation of an SSD drive is no different than installing any ...
The Raspberry Pi 5 is the first in the Raspberry Pi series to support PCI Express (PCIe), and if you use a board that converts PCIe to M.2, you can recognize an M.2 SSD or set the M.2 SSD as the boot ...
I love Retina iMacs. So much so that I took a chance and bought a used 2015 low-end Core i5 iMac with a 1TB Fusion Drive (which combines a 24GB NVMe SSD and a 1TB hard drive)—a machine that’s actually ...
Large capacity hard drives with PMR tend to be surprisingly fast compared to drives as recent as five years ago, but as any enthusiast can attest, a 10,000RPM VelociRaptor hard drive is faster still.
Over the last few months, we have taken a look at a couple of OCZ-built products that leverage the company’s SuperScale Storage Accelerator with VCA (Virtualized Controller Architecture) 2.0. The ...
If you are considering adding extra storage to your computer, NAS or Thunderbolt expansion system’s PCIe card slot, you might be interested to know that Sonnet has this week unveiled its latest ...
SSDs, or solid state drives, have drastically improved the computing experience over the last decade or so. Thanks to them, once ponderous boot times now border on instantaneous, programs and games ...
M.2 SSDs are advanced devices that have transformed data storage. Solid-state drives have quickly become the go-to choice for boosting PC performance due to their lightning-fast speeds and tiny form ...
If you follow performance computing technologies at all, you probably know that a fast SSD can offer a significant speed boost to any system, perhaps more-so than any other upgrade. And when it comes ...
