Thread Starter 
OCZ introduced at Computex its new flash drives in 1.8" format.





Quote:
Vertex 2 and Onyx (S-ATA 3Gb/s) are now officially introduced. The Onyx is equipped with Indillinx Amigos controller, 64 MB cache, and 32 or 64GB of MLC flash memory.

Both supports sequential read of 145 Mb / s, up to 120 MB / s write with 64GB capacity, and 135 & 70 MB / s in the 32GB version.

Vertex 2 equips with SandForce SF-1200 and is available in 60, 120 and 240 GB. It reaches the same speeds as its big brother, 285 MB / s read, 275MB / s write, IOPS and 50,000.

These two new models show an MTBF of 1,500,000 hours, and are warranted for two (Onyx) and three (Vertex 2) years.

When do you think we will see a leap to 320GB or 500Gb in a single SSD? I drool over the performance of these babies, but 256GB barely cuts it and dual SSDs is not always an option.

Intel was pushing for an X25-M (Postville) 320gb last year, but it never materialized ... Hopefully soon?

cheers ...

I'd like the write speed to be a little higher if I'm shelling out that much money for SSD

IMO, just speculating, increased capacity would seriously threaten HDD sales, and increased SSD sales would drive prices down. Just a matter of time waiting for the technology to catch up, and just won't be tomorrow.
