Intel SSD Line, 5 series coming

Intel announced in 2011 its new line of SSDs coming soon from associated components, the devices will be divided into five series that will replace the old growth last year, giving a refresh of the system is not indifferent with regard to the date of the storage industry our PCs and notebooks. The rumors from the American manufacturer of components tell divided into five categories, depending on the function and terminal which will be implemented, and all will be equal to or greater than the number last year developed and launched as the 510 series, ie components used in PCs sold this year.

Intel has promised a tour that will launch the new SSD from June to December, when we do not know if they are all presented in a single date, or if there is actually a distribution of outputs in order to keep alive the market on the hardware, of course, less active than that of the computer.

From the first rumors of a series will actually be the successor of the 510 series, having been announced as 520 series, from the statements made by the press office Intel, this particular series will have the capability of data storage with a range anywhere from 64 GB to 480 GB the result is more than satisfactory, then it is assumed that this will be the most common version to be deployed on the vast majority of medium to low end laptops, which are for hard drives of this size.

The remaining 4 series may be able to relate to high-end PCs that use a hard drive of at least 500 GB for the base versions, up to 1 TB with peak growth of 2 TB, the new iMac laptop as shown in these days from Apple. For those less versed on this issue we report briefly the definition and operation of the SSD storage devices, which are essentially components of flash data storage in particular, developed by Intel to replace the most common and widespread NAND memory, this will allow pc to store data through a system of solid-state drive or a drive with solid state memory, which many incorrectly called solid-state drive for ease of association with the old magnetic disk devices within them, which in this case was deleted for different projects, although the results.

Having a significant step for the PC and all terminals with mass storage, such as tablet, smartphone, and the rest of the common electronic devices, which gradually deploy the technology to make full and efficient usage, casting technology to a new base level. Intel then renews its series and is shown not to have been satisfied with the success of the first edition, this demonstrates the quality of the producer who simultaneously carries out other important projects such as ports Thunderbolt present on the new Macs, allowing data exchange between devices up to fifth times the normal USB ports version 2.0, another major step forward for simplification and rapidity in the management and sharing of a large amount of data, as in the case of companies and activities subject to continuous update and exchange data between various devices, making it necessary to speed up a fundamental operation such as sharing data.

In the coming weeks should come out more details on the new SSD, which in addition to the 520 series includes the 710 series that consetirĂ  a range of memory equal to 100GB, 200GB and 400GB SATA 3 Gbps interface, the 720 series will have the capacity between the 200 and 400 GB, in addition to the 320 series will have between 80 and 600 GB capacity, making it less complex than the five announced by the manufacturer, while the last is called Arsen Creek will offer 200GB in SATA SLC flash memory.
