Intel to Debut Ultra-Fast 180GB SSDs Next Week at IDF
Written on August 16, 2008 – 9:34 am | by admin
Trying to keep up with the competition in the eyes of Micron and its recently introduced RealSSD drives, Intel declared readiness to debut new SSDs too during IDF next week. With the SSD market heating up, Intel’s new storage agents will offer bumped read/write speeds and double the SSD storage capacity we’re used to see. The drives will be available in 1.8″ and 2.5″ format factors and offer a bandwidth of 240 MB/s read and 70-170 MB/s write. Capacities will range from 32GB and 64GB to the rather unusual 80GB and 160GB. No pricing information is available, but big toys always come with a price so don’t expect them to be cheap.
