The jump to ONFI 3.0 represents the largest step up in specification for some time, increasing the maximum transfer rate per channel from DDR 200 (200MB/sec) to DDR 400 (400MB/sec). There's also support for lower I/O signalling voltage and on-die termination, which improves signal integrity and enables faster transfer speeds.

Of course, SSDs such as OCZ's Vertex 3 already surpass these speeds, despite using ONFI 2.1 NAND, by addressing multiple NAND channels simultaneously. However, with the further increased bandwidth of ONFI 3.0 NAND, we should be set for yet another huge step forward in SSD performance.
