The claimed new breakthrough in storage uses two SSDs with 16 data channels for the flash memory to generate a total transfer speed of 1GB per second. The performance tops 200,000 IOPS (input/output operations per second) and is quick enough that Micron has to drop Serial ATA II's 300MB per second bandwidth cap in favor of PCI Express.

:P 4 times faster than intel's new x drive :P




thanks to our own LDJ for the link :lol:

hey banj, he was on skype the last few days.
i lucked out and was on at the same time. i think we are gonna see prices on these and common folk ssd come down sooner than later. i have been waiting, as i'd like to get a set of "cheaper" models for a fast storage/99% read from for backups/disk images. my sas are still quite a bit faster than the intel (and were cheaper too :P ), so it would be a bit before i would give them up.
