It's been quite some time since our last SSD roundup and we hadn't seen much need for one until recently. SSD technology grew stale after saturating the SATA 6Gb/s bus, bringing mostly minor improvements in recent memory and making up for it with price...

The G.Skill Phoenix Blade is a bold move by the Taiwanese company, and one that is done with the intention of reclaiming its place amongst the elite high-performance SSD vendors. Highly competitive performance and a solid design, are how G.Skill has...

In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king. This is the unfortunate but temporary state of consumer SSDs that aren't the Intel 750 or Samsung SM951. Both of those drives offer cutting-edge performance, value (relative to peers), and the...

The Phoenix Blade is a wonderful drive and has the excellent finish and solid construction I've come to expect from the G.SKILL. Even the packaging has a quality feel to it. The only let down is the green PCB. While most of the motherboard, graphics...

Do we need to write anything here? We do? But they saw the graphs, it's obvious what the conclusion is. What? Some people just skip to this page. More fool them. Okay here goes...The G.Skill Phoenix Blade PCIe SSD is the fastest storage solution around,...

G.Skill’s Phoenix Blade represents a big step forward for a company that decided to temporarily exit the SSD market altogether. It is obscenely fast and extremely expensive but its value quotient is surprisingly high when the competition is factored into...

Comparing the RevoDrive 350 to the Phoenix Blade is actually very interesting: while the two share the same core (4x SF-2282), the Phoenix Blade is considerably faster in all our benchmarks. It's hard to point at the SBC controller given how little we...

Looking at the capacity of the G.SKILL Phoenix Blade 480GB PCIe SSD we saw total of 512GB(1GB byte = 1,000,000,000 bytes) of NAND on board and Windows reports the capacity accessible to the end user as 447 GiB (1Gib = 1,073,741,824 bytes) which is...

Modern consumer SSDs are able to saturate the SATA 6Gbps interface introduced a few years ago and now available on practically every motherboard. Advances such as SATA Express and full-bandwidth M.2 have yet to materialise en masse, leaving the door...

This year we'll see 10 Gbps interfaces like the M2 port take off, bringing performance close to say 700 - 800 MB/sec on a small SSD that you infect inject into your motherboard. The next step is a PCI Express based add-in card in RAID and multiple NAND...

G.Skill's first PCIe SSD offering certainly came out of the gate running, and was able to unseat the OCZ RevoDrive 350 in virtually every performance metric. Despite this, the use of high latency SandForce controllers really limit the performance of...

Der SSD-Markt für Endkunden ist noch voll in der Hand von 2,5-Zoll-SSDs. Trotz des SATA-6-Gbit/s-Flaschenhalses bieten diese für das Gros der Nutzer offenbar ausreichend Leistung. Dabei wäre weit mehr möglich. Das zeigen regelmäßig PCI-Express-Laufwerke...

Nous voilà au terme de notre article sur ce super SSD de la mort qui tue qui envoie du très très lourd dans certains cas et c'est sûrement là tout le problème. En effet, dès qu'il est question de travailler sur du gros fichier, le Phoenix Blade est juste...
