That's right, the fuss and wait is finally over.

Samsung's new 32gb 2.5" SSD is now for sale @ Newegg.com.

Much better price-point than the originally though thousands of dollars / gig of space.

Who's gonna be our guinea pig?

Very interesting. IDE (UDMA66) interface. Maybe when there is an external version, then I can carry it around (home to office, etc.)

 

[Mr. Smith]

Thats like $15/GB... Ouch.

When it costs half this price I'll consider it!

This would make an amazing gaming drive, yummmmm! :yumyum: Think of the non-existent load times

 

[NugentS]

Hmmm

I want one...

Shame its IDE though. SATA would have been a lot more conveniant...

I feel you on that one, but I think I'll wait for a SATA one that is bigger capacity for less $...

Guess I'll be waiting a while!

Might as well get a 750gb drive.

Not a bad price for new technology like that really.

 

[Joe]

Yea but good for how many read/writes?

 

[Allsorts]

Bring on the SSD :yumyum:

Samsung just announced a 64GB SSD today. Doesn't say what the interface is but the read/write speeds are improved over the 32GB version.

Well I got one. Now all I need is the adapter to plug it into a real IDE cable (which is on its way from Taiwan as we speak - wos cheaper inc postage than from the UK)
