The Sabrent 8TB Rocket 4 Plus doesn’t suffer from an inflation-busting price tag.
At just under $1,500 (about AU$2000, £1,150), Sabrent’s newest SSD (solid state drive) is neither the biggest, nor the fastest nor the cheapest per TB capacity but it hits a nice, sweet spot. The Rocket 4 Plus 8TB is the fastest, very high capacity model available on the market right now, as most if not all of its rivals are either smaller and as fast or just as big and smaller in capacity. The drive was originally announced late in 2021, but prospective purchasers had to wait four months to get their hands on the new model. In a statement to TechRadar Pro, Sabrent told us that the device is late because the new NAND (8Tbit,112-layer, TLC, BICS5) is larger than others and took a lot of engineering to get everything to fit and tune the firmware.
