So what this is saying is that SSD's built using these chips with a good controller will make the brand new SATA 6G instantly become the performance cap on the high end transfer numbers they can put out.

And THAT'S why I'm postponing my switch to SSD. No, wait, I forgot I'm waiting for the prices to come down!Big Smile

I'm assuming those sizes are chips and not actual hard drives.... those would be ridiculously small SSDs lol

Eitherway I foresee 600MB/s transfer speeds with a single drive!

How exciting! I can imagine these will be outrageously expensive too.

I was wondering when this would start happening. Then think about the fast that this basically moves Nand to DDR speeds, and consider the newest common memory on the market is DDR3 for standard memory, and DDR5 for video memory. On top of that DDR 3 while somewhat faster than DDR2 actually has a main benefit of operating slightly faster than DDR2, but doing so with less energy. Then DDR4 and DDR5 are pretty close to the same as that, with added heat related bonuses as well as efficiency for both (DDR3 and 5) and you see when and why SSD drives will become cheaper, and eventually become what mechanical drives are today.
