They
told us they were coming, now sure enough, PNY has loosed their line-up of
Solid State Disks.
Available in 1.8- and 2.5-inch profiles, the new SSDs feature up to
66MBps read and 55MBps write speeds and standard ZIF, micro-SATA,
44-pin IDE, and regular ol' SATA interfaces for drop-in replacement of
hard disks in things like iPods (you wish PNY) and laptops -- right,
the
same price as SanDisk.
Unfortunately, you'll have to be an OEM to take order (starting today)
of the 2.5-inch, 32GB jobbie which costs about $350 when purchased in
quantity. By Q3, PNY (and
everyone else it seems) expects to be shipping their 1.8-inch and 2.5-inch SSDs in 64GB and 128GB capacities, respectively.
