This is samsung’s new product wich will introduce for this last year. a new variant of SATA II SSD should obliterate the competition with read speeds of 200MB/sec and write speeds of an amazing 160MB/sec. This compares to 120MB/sec and 40MB/sec respectively for Super Talents latest SSDs. Even Mtron falls far behind Samsung’s new 256GB SSD with read speeds of 120MB/sec and write speeds of 100MB/sec.
Samsung is using single-level cell (SLC) NAND chips to achieve these unheard of performance figures, however, the company instead settled on cheaper multi-level cell (MLC) NAND chips on this product. With development of the 256GB SSD, the notebook PC is on the brink of a second stage of evolution.
However, as the technology matures, we can expect to see prices drop as we have seen with the offerings from Super Talent. And if Intel has anything to say about it, it will offer SSD performance that will rival all contenders and likely will use its girth to push pricing further down to “mere mortal” levels. its will bea nice product that have any special features wich help you to save data in a simple package. If you’re a mobile pc user, dont miss to get it.
