SSD

If you're thinking of building a computer instead of just flat out buying one, a new type of solid-state storage could have you moving files faster than pretty much anything out there.

LaCie's typically orange rugged backup drives aren't the only options this year, with a diamond-cut approach to designing drives offering big sizes and fast storage.

If you're using a laptop where you can upgrade the hard drive, you might want to wait until January, where Samsung's next drive could potentially it to a massive maximum 4TB size.

Last year's T5 external solid-state drive was one of the fastest around, but this year, Samsung has managed to make something even faster.

When it comes to taking photos, backing up is essential, even when you're on the go, but it can take so long, and that's where a new drive comes in.

Your computer's hard drive is fast, but it can always be faster. What if loading files happened in an instant, compared to something a little slower? That might well be possible with Samsung's latest tech.

The need for speed isn't just a video game title, but a thing all computer owners have screamed for at one point in time, particularly gamers. And now with a new type of drive technology, that need might be satiated.Our computers may not be as used as our smartphones these days, but those of us who still rely on them have probably griped about the speed at least once or twice before, and possibly very recently.Maybe your system is really old and relies on legacy technology, or maybe it's recent enough and you just…

External storage is changing for the better, because while we’ve had the same ol’ hard drive for years, Samsung is making it better, faster, and stronger.

One of the leading hard drive makers is finally (finally) pushing past its origins, as its acquisition of SanDisk bears fruit with its first portable solid state drive.
