Tip: Click here to update all your PC's outdated driversSSDs have always been for those with a lot of cash and a lot of demand for speed, and after this new product introduction, things are still the same. SSDs, or solid state drives, are popular because they're fast and reliable.
They feature no moving parts, so they don't suffer nearly as badly from knocks or drops as regular hard drives. Although, these benefits come with a price; these drives are typically much smaller in storage, and because they're a lot harder to manufacture, they're a great deal pricier too.
According to Techworld, a company named Super Talent has made a world first and debuted a 512GB SSD ready for consumers; the largest to ever be sold. There have been storage solutions similar to this, like a setup from OCZ that features 1TB of SSD storage by tightly packing four 265GB SSDs, but none have had this level of space in one drive before.

fast i get, but reliable?
from what i've been reading, that's been one of the
major challenges .... i'm just waiting for 128gb under $200 that is reliable and good
enough to use for the os ...
check users review from newegg, nobody should waste money for this kind short life junk.
overpriced?.....yep
still too small?.....yep
will the price drop like a rock in
12-18 months?.......yep
early days yet guys, remember when a 20gb hard disk was state
of the art?
give it some time...
big companies such as seagate, maxtor and western digital..etc know better when it comes
to storage speed and reliability.. they don't invest much in ssd.
