INTRODUCTION

   From the very first (and very slow at that) USB flash drives to (the much higher capacity) portable HDDs and all the way to the latest (and blazing fast) portable SSDs not only has the entire concept of carrying all your needed/crucial files with you not changed at all but it has also improved considerably both due to the increased capacities and of course performance levels. Now leaving out the recently announced portable SSD models which advertise speeds of well over 2000MB/s the most popular ones currently are without doubt those with performance levels set at around 1000MB/s. Well since for the past two months or so some of you have asked repeatedly today, I’ll testing yet another such model, the SE760 1TB by ADATA.

   Founded in May 2001, ADATA Technology Co., Ltd. is committed to providing top-notch memory solutions that enrich the customer’s digital life. The company’s dedication to integrity and professionalism has made ADATA the leading memory brand with the most award-winning product designs. Backed by technical expertise, state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, and premium customer service, ADATA offers complete memory solutions including DRAM modules, USB flash drives, memory cards, solid state drives and portable hard drives.

   Currently the SE760 portable SSD is available in 256GB/512GB/1TB/2TB capacities (also in black and titanium gray colors) and is based on the DRAM-less RTS5763DL 4-channel NAND flash controller by Realtek which ADATA has paired with 64-Layer 3D TLC NAND Flash by Micron and the JMS583 USB3.2 Gen 2 to PCIe Gen3x2 host interface bridge chip by JMicron. The RTS5763DL NAND controller by Realtek is NVMe 1.3 compatible and comes packed with LDPC technology (low-density parity-check) for increased reliability/endurance, dynamic SLC caching, low power support with integrated DEVSLP (Device Sleep) and of course AES-256bit encryption. With the SE760 ADATA also gives you the ability to download their HDDtoGO (backup your drive to the SE760) and OStoGO (boot drive). Finally, ADATA covers the entire SE760 line of portable SSDs with a 3-year limited warranty.
