Intel X25-V Value SSD to get to 80GB in 2010

jmke · 18th December 2009, 13:05

Thanks to a new 2x nm architecture, Intel will be able to introduce 80GB value drives that probably won’t cost you arm and leg. Intel also plans to continue with X-25 M – Mainstream and X25 E – Enthusiast drives, but these will end up faster and more expensive, compared to Value series.

So what's the go here?
The 'current' X-25 M G2 will become known as X-25 V and the 'new' X-25 M will use the upcoming generation technology?

I think it will be more like the 40gb Kingston drive

G2 stays as the G2.

Good chance this will use "3" bit flash chips... shorter lifespan, lower write speeds, but high capacity at a lower cost than today's chips.
