Samsung Solid-State Hard Drives Unveiled

By

I can’t wait to get my hands on one (or three) of these drives! Should be a nice boost in data transfer performance for many situations. And hopefully the risk of storage errors will be next to nothing since it will not have any moving parts!

The drives will be introduced in 1.8- and 2.5-inch form factors for notebooks. While streaming performance can’t equal that of hard disks, Samsung claims that random-access performance is more important and that (e.g.) Vista users would see a 4x speedup in many key operations. Pricing was not announced.
