Clever mix of performance and capacity
Cache can deliver SSDlike speed in ideal scenarios
When we looked at the RevoDrive Hybrid earlier in the year, it was clear that the caching principle is an effective way to go by utilising the speed of an SSD and pairing it with the capacity of a traditional mechanical drive. Since then we have seen this...

Abstract: It’s impossible to mention the data storage market without at least hinting at the recent floods on Taiwan, which managed to spoil many plans regarding shipped quantities and retail prices of HDDs. Yet it seems that luck is a wheel indeed. The lack and...

Dataplex software only works with Windows 7, Does not support hard drives larger than 2TB (yet), Not as fast when reading and writing randomly generated data
OCZ has really hit the mark with their Synapse Series SSDs. Instead of having to choose between the performance of an SSD and the capacity of a traditional hard drive, this innovative caching solution gives users the best of both worlds. The integrate...
We can sit here and say the drive is fast and it is, but then again what SSD isn’t. What makes this drive the drive that is it is the caching system. There is no easier way to get the same or greater than SSD performance from a mechanical drive. No ma...
Near solid state drive performance, Improves Windows 7 boot time, Easy to setup software, 3 year warranty
Dataplex software can only be used on Windows 7 systems
You know I honestly was a little skeptical about these supposed caching drives. I mean I knew what they were supposed to do but I did not expect to see such a performance increase. I mean using the hybrid solution is just like using a normal solid st...
