Intel to launch new caching SSDs to go with Ivy Bridge

Despite some confusion as to whether Intel’s next-generation processor architecture had been delayed, it turns out that only the dual-core mobile chips will be held back, with quad core parts expected to arrive on track in April. Now details are emerging of Intel's new range of caching solid state disks to be released alongside Ivy Bridge.
Intel's new 313 Series solid state disks will utilize 25nm process SLC NAND flash memory, and will be built specifically with caching in mind alongside the Ivy Bridge lineup. SLC flash has much lower write latency than MLC and typically handles around 20 times more program/erase cycles, making it perfectly suited to scenarios involving continuous read/writ... »read more
