Intel’s First SSD Sets The Bar High
Via Slashdot:
“Intel is entering the storage market with an ambitious X25-M solid-state drive capable of 250MB/s sustained reads and 70MB/s writes. The drive is so fast that it employs Native Command Queuing (originally designed to hide mechanical hard drive latency) to compensate for latency the SSD encounters in host systems. But how fast is the drive in the real world? The Tech Report has an in-depth review comparing the X25-M’s performance and power consumption with that of the fastest desktop, mobile, and solid-state drives on the market.”
In typical Intel fashion, incredible.
