As part of the Computex 2016, Toshiba introduced a couple of OCZ-branded 2.5-inch SATA solid-state drives. The OCZ VT180 & the OCZ TR150 are available in four capacities: 120 GB, 240 GB, 480 GB & 960 GB. The key differentiation between the two models lies in the choice of memory type; the first SSD employs MLC NAND chips, whereas the second item uses TLC NAND chips. The pair also differs by warranty liabilities, offering 5- and 3-year’s limited packages correspondingly.



Toshiba OCZ VT180 employs SATA III interface, featuring 100.45x69.75x7 mm dimensions. Its sequential Read/Write data transfer speed makes up 550/440 MBs across the line. At the same time, random Read/Write specs vary from 85.000-95.000 IOPS/90.000 IOPS respectively. The drive consumes 3.7 W power in active mode, reducing this level to 0.89 W in standby mode.


This model is estimated for 1.500.000 hours of fool-proof operation. Moreover, it supports such advanced technologies as SMART, TRIM and Idle Time …

The HyperX subdivision of Kingston Technology Company, Inc. has reported the broadening of HyperX FURY DDR4 DIMM and HyperX Impact DDR4 SODIMM RAM lines with the latest high-speed samples. Both families are represented by modules of the 4, 8 and 16 GB capacity and by sets, consisting of two (total volume: 8, 16, 32 GB) or four RAM-cards (total volume: 16, 32, 64 GB).

 

The HyperX FURY DDR4 DIMM series puts forward solutions with the 3,466 MHz and CL19 delay, operating at 1.2 volt, as flagships. They are available in the form of separate modules and sets of two cards with the 8/16/32 GB total capacity. Chips are chilled down by low-profile heatsinks, performed in three colour variants: white, black and red. Dimensions of these novelties are 133.35 х 34.04 mm.

 

Speaking about HyperX Impact DDR4 SODIMM, one may note, this line obtained modules and sets of the same volume as HyperX FURY DDR4 DIMM, however the clockrates are …

The ADATA manufacturer has officially introduced two new external memory units, called ADATA HV300 and ADATA HD330.

 

ADATA HV300 obtained a stylish and thin (10.3 mm only) case. The other novelty, instead, got a protected shockproof design with the absorbing silicone covering. Both devices are available in 5 capacity variants – 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 TB, to be more precise. Besides, all of them have a USB 3.1 port.

 

The two specialties by ADATA are supplied with a special sensor, registering shocks or cases of falling down during operation and terminating the inner drive activity to prevent data corruption or bad-sectors emergence. Happy owners of ADATA HV300 and ADATA HD330 may utilize brand HDDtoGO software for free, so they get a possibility to encrypt data with the help of 256-bit AES-algorithm.

 

The novelties will be shipped in various colour versions with the interface cable added to the supply kit. Prices are unveiled yet.
