Holy crap. Wonder what the price point of this thing will be (probably pretty high) but it sure is a step in the right direction.
SATA interface too which means I could just stick it in my laptop if the price is reasonable. At this rate, when I'm ready for a new laptop in a couple of years SSD should be coming almost standard. Perhaps even standard at that point.

| PQI just announced the availability of their 64GB, 2.5-inch drive -- doubling the size of current SSDs packed in either 1.8-inch or 2.5-inch IDE enclosures. That's news, big news in and of itself. But these drives are also the world's first to sport SATA. That's right, thick juicy SATA which should make it possible to do a one-for-one swap with your existing laptop's spinner. So check it DV editors, before the end of the month you too will have access to ultra-fast flash for your video. No word on pricing yet, but 64GB of NAND on a SATA interface will likely buck the trend of falling SSD prices. Temporarily anyway. |
