We recently tested the Corsair Force GS 240GB and Adata SX910 256GB SSDs. Both turned out to be more than just another SandForce-based SSD with the same specs. The Corsair SSD stood out due to its choice of Sandisk 24nm ToggleNAND. Adata opted for disab...
Transcend's decision to disable RAISE on the SSD720 was a good one in our opinion. The minute chance that a single chip will malfunction does not outweigh the advantage of having the extra 8 GB available. We assume of course that you frequently make bac...

This may be the first Transcend product we have reviewed, but the SSD720 128GB is without doubt, a monster. It performs better than many of the competing Sandforce 2281 powered drives thanks in part to the excellent choice of Sandisk MLC NAND flash.Sandfo...

Not long ago Transcend released a pair of SSDs designed to take on the Team SandForce competition. Just like others before, Transcend went with the two tier strategy, toggle/synchronous at the top and asynchronous on the bottom. The entry-level async...
With a full 256GB of user capacity and a price less than $200, the Transcend SSD720 is an appealing product. Transcend didn't hit this price point by eliminating the goodies either. You get a full accessory package that includes several software tool...

Transcend lists its SSD720 as an 'Ultimate' model, compared to its SSD320 model, which is 'Premium'. While both use a SandForce SF-2281 controller, the difference comes down to the type of memory - the SSD320 uses 25nm Asynchronous MLC, while SSD720 uses...

Transcend. Never heard of it? Actually, it's been in the memory game for longer than most, and was one of the very first outfits to flog solid state drives aimed at punters with PCs rather than just to big business.Indeed, dig a little deeper and you'll f...

Notably, it delivers its impressive peak performance numbers beyond the 500MB/s mark courtesy of data compression. Which is clever, except that much of the data you shunt around, like images and music and video, isn't compressible. That explains why the...

Over the past year, we've seen the cost per gigabyte of solid-state storage drop in a major way. Once upon a time, we shopped for affordable 60 and 80 GB drives. Now we really want 256 GB drives in our desktops. Meet the last 10 models to land in our l...

The last LSI Sandforce SF-2281 powered SSD drive that I tested was ADATA XPG SX900 SSD , and there was nothing out of the ordinary to point out. At the end of the day, it was just another Sandforce drive. But to give some life in the oldest and most used...

We are usually not very thrilled about reviewing SSDs with 120 or 128 gigabytes storage capacity. This capacity is just not good for showing what a particular SSD design can do. Today’s SSDs use eight-channel controllers and 64-gigabit flash memory chi...
