Intel risks to accelerate the development of SSD disks
Source : DigitimesEven though officially there are many manufacturers of SSD disks in the catalogue, in reality, it is difficult to buy with one of these rare computers with the proposed SSD as an option, and t is impossible to find one at the retail stores, at any price.
It seems quite simply that the manufacturers prefer not to mass produce these disks. Things could quickly change under the impulse given by Intel.
The foundry decided to propose, as an option with the centrino 2 platform, SSD disks. They will be in SATA (exit MacBook Air) and proposed in 1,8" and 2,5" in a capacity of 80 GB.
Intel already hope to pass to 160 GB by the end of the year, and 250 GB in 2009.
The tariff of these products should be accessible since the foundry considers that the mid-range machines could be equipped about it.
