hp p700 1tb ssd review a

    Performance and size/weight versus capacity and price, these have always been the two ratios’ SSDs and HDDs respectively (both internal and external models) have always been proud of and honestly i don't really see that changing anytime soon (especially now that Seagate has finally unveiled their Mach.2 drives for which I've talked about extensively years ago). Still performance is clearly something many consumers and professionals alike place above capacity (and price) and that's clearly why portable SSDs currently enjoy such high popularity levels. HP recently also entered the portable SSD market (via their cooperation with BIWIN) and today with me i have one of their fastest models currently available, the P700 1TB.


    HP Inc. (NYSE: HPQ) creates technology that makes life better for everyone, everywhere. Through our product and service portfolio of personal systems, printers and 3D printing solutions, we engineer experiences that amaze. More information about HP Inc. is available at www.hp.com.


    HP currently has their Portable SSD P700 available in just 3 capacities (256GB/512GB/1TB) and 3 colors (red/blue/black) and just like with the CarbonX portable SSD by Mushkin (review here) under the enclosure (top aluminum/bottom plastic) they've placed the SM2263EN quad channel high-performance PCIe Gen3 x4 controller (NVMe v1.3 protocol) by Silicon Motion along with Intel/Micron 64-layer TLC NAND flash and 1GB LPDDR3 RAM by Micron. Responsible for the 10Gbps speed of the Portable SSD P700 is no other than the JMS583 USB 3.1/3.2 Gen 2 to PCIe NVMe Gen3 x2 bridge controller by JMicron. Specifications aside however what makes the Portable SSD P700 stand out from similar models is its "hidden" magnetic compartment inside which you'll find an USB-C to USB-A cable and an USB-A to USB-C adapter. In terms of durability HP reports an MTBF (mean time between failure) of 2.000.000 hours and covers the entire Portable SSD P700 line with a 3-year limited warranty.
