256 gigabyte solid state drive!

Samsung announces a huge breakthrough in solid state memory at 256gB. This flash drive is quick, silent and has no moving parts like a hard drive.  It's perfect for a music system - but extremely expensive.

The drive, which was announced way back in May of the year two-thousand and eight, doubles the performance rates of the firm's 64GB and 128GB SSDs. More specifically, we're looking at sequential read rates of 220MB/sec and sequential write rates of 200MB/sec, and in layman's terms, it's quick enough to store 25 HD movies in 21 minutes or a few thousand high resolution audio files in the same amount of time.

Basic applications is 10 times faster than the quickest 7,200RPM notebook drive.
