CDRLabs kicks off the week with a review of Samsung's second-generation quad-level cell (QLC) SSD, the 870 QVO. Delivering an uncompromising mix of speed, storage capacity and reliability, this new consumer-oriented drive is powered by Samsung's new MKX "Metis" controller and is available with up to 8TB of their latest 4-bit MLC V-NAND flash. To compensate for the slow write speeds typically associated with 4-bit NAND, the 870 QVO is equipped with Samsung's Intelligent TurboWrite technology, which uses a large variable SLC buffer to maintain peak performance levels. The drive also features an AES 256-bit hardware-based encryption engine and is compliant with various advanced security management solutions such as TCG Opal 2.0 and Encrypted Drive (IEEE-1667).

Apricorn, the leading manufacturer of software-free, 256-bit AES XTS hardware-encrypted USB 3.2 storage devices, has launched the Aegis Secure Key 3NXC – the first device of its kind with a USB-C connector. This makes it the only hardware-encrypted flashkey that is compatible with the next generation of laptops, smartphones, tablets and hubs, without the need for a separate A-to-C adapter.
