SimpleTech 128 GB Solid State SATA Drives : Gizmodo

SimpleTech 128 GB Solid State SATA Drives : Gizmodo

"SimpleTech has announced their new Serial ATA Solid State Drive called the Zeus. Lacking any moving parts, it's effectively a gigantic flash drive with an SATA interface. The Zeus will be offered in capacities up to 128 gigabytes with read and write rates reaching 60 megabytes per second. (Being a solid state drive, though, it's true speed is in the seek time, which is negligible.) The drives are also only 9.5 millimeters tall, making them easily stackable and expandable. No word on price, but assume it will require a second mortgage, considering their 8GB CF card was selling for $6,000 last year. "

New must have for uber-gaming machines?
