Kingston SSD V Series 40GB

I believe this one uses the Intel chip which all other Kingston SSD’s do not. We will have to buy one at SecureWebs for testing.

Using Solid-State Drives

The use of solid-state drives makes a server significantly faster. But not all vendor SSD’s intel-x25-ssdare created equal. We want to give you a tip. Intel drives have proved the most reliable. We have tried several others, few with the same performance and so far none with the same trouble free history. From time-to-time we had some arrive dead from other vendors.

There are just a few data centers that have explored SSD in servers. It certainly cuts down on electrical use. Each watt saved on a hard drive is one less watt that is used for cooling as well.

San Users on Solid State Drives

IT professionals from the Minnesota Wild, MaximumASP, TechniGraphics and Munder Capital discuss their SSD implementation process and the benefits they have received.

SSD vs Spindle

For those trying to understand how much quicker SSD is than a spindle drive, this comparison shows the difference in speed by trying to open 6 adobe apps at exactly the same time. The difference? The SSD is about 6 times faster.

Total awesomeness of SSD

A cute demonstration of how fast a workstation can boot using an SSD.

Intel Solid-State Drives

See the highlights of all the Intel SSD Black Rock Adventures with the North American Eagle car and team. It was a crazy three days in the desert! Enjoy the compilation!

SSD vs Hard Drive

With two identical mobile system setups except the storage drives we take a look at the boot up and shut down performance to see if we can observe any differences. The notebook equipped with an OCZ Vertex versus a traditional hard drive is not only faster but feels “snappier” overall.

Intel G2 SSD RAID Test

The new Intel X25-M G2 revision SSD is stupid-fast, and even more so when you connect 2 of them together in RAID 0. Paul and Jeremy got their hands on two of the 80GB G2s this past weekend, and were able to crank out some impressive benchmarking numbers.

Samsung SSD Awesomeness

These guys did something amazing by taking 24 256GB Samsung MLC SSD’s and put them in RAID to make an amazing awesome computer! See how they did it, and what the results were!
