ADATA has done a really great job of rebranding their original SX7000 to appeal to more people, the XPG Gammix S10 is basically the SX7000 with a flashy heatspreader. That heatspreader design is actually pretty awesome and is going to look great in your...

The pricing of the Gammix S10 says a lot about its positioning. The 128GB model sells for around Rs. 5,600, while the 1TB unit that we've reviewed would cost roughly Rs. 29,600 on the street. This is only a little less at each capacity level than the...

In the beginning of the review, we set to see out validation on a statement made by ADATA about the XPG Gammix S10. They said that it was “built for professionals.” But, is this really the case? We think after looking through the data we can finally...

It is obvious solid-state drives are fast, but that is not all to consider. Older style 2.5” SATA SSDs (and a few “SATA-only” M.2 drives) suffer from an interface bottleneck of around 550MB/s. Non-SATA M.2 drives simply don't have this limitation, and...

At the end of the day the ADATA XPG Gammix S10 M.2 NVMe SSD is nothing more than the entry-level XPG SX7000 M.2 NVMe SSD, adding only a heatspreader. That isn't a bad thing though as the performance of the drive was on par with what one would expect for...

The Adata XPG Gammix S10 is a blessing for users with light workloads. The S10's performance is better than what SATA can deliver, and for many, the low performance state will never come into play. We really like this drive's price point, but it's...

M.2 PCIe SSDs are usually regarded as high-end SSDs, and the GAMMIX S10 plays into this with the styled heatspreader. But underneath, it's an entry-level NVMe SSD that does not reliably outperform SATA SSDs. The ADATA XPG GAMMIX S10 behaves quite...

Básicamente ADATA ha decidido lavar la cara de su XPG SX7000 original con un diseño gamer, incluyendo un disipador fino y atractivo (que reduce la temperatura un 10%), junto a su controlador Silicon Motion SM2260. Sin dudas resulta una actualización...
