SanDisk announced its new pSSD flash memory modules designed for ultra low-cost netbooks, the portable computers characterized by small size, low cost and wireless Internet access.
The Parallel ATA solid state drives will be available in August and can store both the operating system and the application data eliminating the need for hard disk drives. They have a capacity of up to 16GB, a reading speed of 39MB/s and writing speed of 17MB/s, with support for Windows XP and Linux operating systems.
Based on SanDisk’s Multi-Level Cell and Single-Level Cell flash memory, these modules will deliver reliability, lower power consumption and a low cost.
"We're excited to be involved in this emerging market of ULCPCs, which take the concept of affordability into new directions - ones that are ideally suited to the multiple benefits of SanDisk's technology," declared Rich Heye, Senior Vice President and General Manager at SanDisk's Solid State Drives (SSD) Business Unit. "Based on consumer response to some of the first ULCPCs, these devices are quickly developing a popular following. Our new pSSDs are enablers for manufacturers to create what could become the next wave of personal and portable computing devices."
