Intel's 34nm NAND SSDs launch in two weeks

[GunterFalstaff]

Not 100% sure about AM3, but I heard AM2 is not so good for raid. You may be better off to just get 1x 80gb or a 160gb, or if you need writes speed a new OCZ colossus is 'apparently' due to be released soon which has around 260ish mb/s write speed and it's supposed to be cheap.

When is the Colossus supposed to be out? that definitely sounds like a good deal @ $300 for the 128gb

a quote from Tony on OCZ forums...

some info for you guys:

The 1st gen of this drive is sata 3.0, it has a single sata connector and as such is limited to sata 3.0 speeds. its performance is much higher than a single drive, 4K RW is 4X better than single Vertex.

The design brief was for capacity and performance for the desktop user.

We can and we will port this drive to sata 6.0 with new raid interface, that will be the gen2 version of the drive. I am not sure if the barefoot controller also will be changed at this time.

I have asked for a sample as well as a revised sample of the Z drive, both Colossus and Z drive have changed quite a bit from their first showing...

Thats all i can feed you at this time, as i get more i can leak i will.

New info on Colossus says it will be sold mid-august..
