All Specs Between you and us...the world of PCI Express 3.0 internal solid-state drives (SSDs) has gotten a bit stale, lately, hasn't it? While innovations are continuing in materials science and engineering that are packing ever more data into smaller and smaller chips for less money every year, the sequential speed throughput of the standard has been capped by the limitations of the interface. So what's next? The Intel SSD 670p, that's what. Specially tuned to perform ahead of the curve in tasks like booting operating systems and launching key programs, the 670p (starts at $89.99 for 512G...

The Sabrent Rocket Q4 (starts at $159.99 for 1TB; $749.99 for 4TB as tested) is not the highest-capacity internal SSD we have reviewed—that distinction belongs to the 8GB Sabrent Rocket Q—but it gives you far more storage space than typical M.2 solid-state drives, which seldom exceed 2TB.

Following on from the middling ADATA Falcon and Swordfish drives, ADATA's XPG division is standing up to the plate with its latest offering, the XPG Gammix S50 Lite (starts at 1TB for $149.99; 2TB for $299.99, as tested). It's a PCI Express (PCIe) 4.0 drive that features just four channels (half of the eight-channel standard estab...

All Specs Given all else it's known for across the galaxy, Samsung is certainly no stranger to the world of internal solid-state drives (SSDs). The company continues to be a leading force in the industry, producing some of the best SSDs we've reviewed year in and year out. Pairing a few industry-standard features with a few more industry-leading speeds, the Samsung SSD 870 EVO (starts at $39.99; $479.99 for the 4TB version we tested) comes within inches of successfully bridging the gap between SATA and PCI Express drives with stellar results in program and game launching, as well as booting ...
