Until now, when wanted to invest in a hard drive, it should be preferred storage space, or to prefer speed. Crucial is clearly not the kind of company to compromise and thus that he has just lifted the veil on its new SSD, a drive that offers nothing less than 960 GB of storage space. And contrary to what you might think, it will not pay thousands of dollars to enjoy since the guy will be offered around € 550. Attractive, of course, and the best is yet to come as this disc should arrive on the market in the first quarter of 2013.
In other words, we should be able to put the legs over the next few weeks, barely. If you do not have such a budget, you can also reassure you that as SSD will be available in several models, varying according to their storage and their access to reading and writing. We will have something for everyone and for every budget and it is still a very good thing.
Here are the different M500 SSDs that will soon be offered by Crucial
- SSD 120 GB - 2.5 inches: 500 MB / s read, 130 MB / s write.
- SSD 240 GB - 2.5 inches: 500 MB / s read, 250 MB / s write.
- SSD 480 GB - 2.5 inches: 500 MB / s read, 400 MB / s write.
- SSD 960 GB - 2.5 inches: 500 MB / s read, 400 MB / s write.
In addition, you should know that these four discs will support the AES 256 for encryption and they integrate several capacitors to avoid the worst case of power failure. Better, the buggers will even integrate management technology internal temperature, a technology that is able to automatically decrease disk performance in case of overheating.
On paper, it's still great and promising as saying that the 960 GB SSD may enter the eye of a lot of people. Especially at this price, especially with the performance, especially with embedded technologies. And finally, the hybrid hard drives have just lost all interest.
