i hope the price drops on this one soon. i just can't wait to replace every spinning HHD in my posession with powepdrop-shielded, electricity-saving toy.

No, SanDisk's latest offering in the ever-populating <A href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/SSD">SSD</A> realm is far from the <A href="http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/23/adtrons-160gb-drive-nabs-the-2-5-inch-ssd-record/">largest</A>, but just a tick after releasing a <A href="http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/04/sandisk-announces-32gb-ssd-prices-begin-to-fall/">1.8-inch edition</A>, now the firm is unveiling a laptop (and external enclosure) friendly 2.5-inch flavor. The <A href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/sandisk">SanDisk</A> SSD SATA 5000 2.5-inch is touted as a "drop-in replacement for the hard disk drive," and also boasts the durability that purportedly comes with being a fifth-generation product. Additionally, the NAND-based drive features a sustained read rate of 67-megabytes per second, reportedly enabling it to boot Windows <A href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/vista">Vista</A> Enterprise on a lappie in "as little as 30 seconds." Of course, SanDisk didn't mind flaunting the low power consumption on this one either, as it boldly proclaims the 0.9-watts used during "active operation" as being nearly half as conservative as typical drives. While we're not exactly sure just how much these things will run the average consumer just yet, they are supposedly shipping to computer manufacturers now at around $350 a pop.</DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/F2310015-8159-465B-9E23-0C9279DA947C/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
