On Monday, Dell announced it was matching Toshiba, which had previously announced a notebook with a 128 GB solid-state drive (SSD), by offering a 128 GB SSD for $649. It will be available as an option starting Tuesday in the U.S. on Dell Precision and Latitude systems. Inspiron and Alienware systems will get the drive starting next week.
Price, size, speed: that's what holds back solid-state drive (SSD) adoption. With the introduction o this new SSD, Samsung claims to eliminate the size and speed constraints as issues. Samsung claims this to be the fastest SSD in existence.
While solid-state drives (SSDs) aren’t the most popular storage medium in notebook computers right now, they are expected to grow significantly in the near future.
