This is the new HDD : Samsung SSD (Solid State Disk)
Wednesday, January 03, 2007
Get ready to be SSD'ed? But absolutely not in the near upcoming months for me. My current 60GB HDD was performing better than enough for the time being."Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., the world leader in advanced semiconductor technology solutions, announced that it is now sampling its 16-gigabit (Gb) NAND flash memory with customers - the first NAND flash using 50 nanometer (nm) process technology."
"The first samples of this high density NAND flash memory have a multi-level cell (MLC) design with a 4Kbyte (KB) page size to enhance both its read and write features. The new 4KB page function improves the conventional 2KB paging system for MLC NAND flash to double the read speed, while increasing write performance 150%."- source
150% increase? Wow! This is a biggg fuiyoo. But what actually does it mean? Easy said, you benefited more speedy & absolutely faster data transfer when storing or reading large data files.Mind if you're using an external memory card, or a handset with a built-in flash solution. Sounds awesome?
Go Korea, Go!
