Samsung’s World’s Fastest 256GB MLC-Based SSD
The leading company in advanced memory technology, Samsung has announced that it has developed the world’s fastest, 2.5-inch, 256GB (multi-level cell) MLC-based SSD (solid state drive) using SATA II interface, which is only 9.5mm thick and 2.5-inches long.
According to the company, “With a sequential read speed of 200 megabytes per second (MB/s) and sequential write speed of 160MB/s, Samsung’s MLC-based 2.5-inch 256GB SSD is about 2.4 times faster than a typical HDD.”
This 256GB SSD also can prevent file/data stored on the SSD from being accessed in an unauthorized manner even after the SSD is removed from your PC, thanks to the sophisticated data encryption process.
The company is planned to begin mass producing the 2.5-inch, 256GB SSD by the end of the year, while a smaller, 1.8-inch version of the 256GB SSD is expected to be available in Q4 2008.
