A-Data is another favorite hardware manufacturer that I enjoy checking out from time to time, and today it's more than just another new product, because A-Data did it again! Don't worry, it's nothing bad, unless you're one of their competitors, because A-Data just launched the first 512GB laptop SSD!
Just as a side note, I am using a DDR2 kit from A-Data, as well as a card reader and a flash drive, and they all work great(the memory kit has been working around the clock for over a year and a half now), and when I say that a hardware manufacturer is "one of my favorites," that's the truth, and nothing else. Good, now let's see what's the catch with the beauty above, shall we?
"The 512GB XPG 2.5” SSD delivers fast transfer rate up to 230MB/s and 160MB/s read and write. Adopted standard high speed SATA II interface and equipped with a tough but lightweight case. Up to 512GB capacity, is the highest capacity SSD offer to the market, designed for notebook and PC enthusiasts seeking for both fast transfer rate and high capacity SSD."
Just look at the MTBF - 1,500,000 hrs - hell yeah! If that's not enough, think about the operating temperature range (-10°C~70°C), and the incredible shock resistance - 1500G/0.5ms!!
For now, there's no word about pricing, but things are looking extremely interesting, as the dawn of a new era approaches. How long will it take for the good-old HDDs, as we know them, to become only a memory? That remains to be seen, but the 512GB laptop SSD from A-Data is already here, although it may take a few months until the asus S121 arrives, since that one is expected to be the first device to use the XPG SSD.
