G.Skill International Phoenix SATA II 2.5-inch SSD

G.Skill International has a spanking new Phoenix SATA II 2.5-inch SSD for the mass market, where you can choose from some rather strange denominations when it comes to total amount of storage space – we’re talking about 50GB, 100GB or 200GB capacities, where they will all feature the SandForce SF-1200 controller which is capable of hitting 280MB/s read and 270MB/s write speeds. Each purchase will be accompanied by a 2-year warranty, although we do not have any information on pricing and availability. Just in case you were wondering whether hard drives will get obsolete, companies are looking at 900GB models in the near future, so for those who don’t mind some noise coming out of their computers when data is being accessed, then you can always give the SSD camp a miss. [Press Release]
