Storage devices that will not Crash!


Thought about many topics to post, however, somethings on my mind to post about new technologies whenever they strike to me...

This is a first valid posting towards a new category i would like to call THE TECHNOLOGY CRYSTAL BALL...

Upcomming trends towards sturdy storage devices, that do not crash each time they fall off your desk or laptop lead to Solid State Storage, SSD as they are called. SSDs are currently in their 10s of Gbs availibility, but Hard drives that store upto 500Gbs are available and that too at price points much cheaper than say a 8Gb SSD.

Reality check:
Toshiba announced the first 2.5 inch SSD based on 43Nanometer cell circuits. They are announced in capacities upto 512Gb. You can look at prices falling to affordable levels very soon.
