Intel to Roll Out New Low-Cost and High-End SSDs

Intel will release a $120 solid-state disk (SSD) drive positioned as a server boot drive with only 40GB of capacity, but the drive could also be used in low-end laptops PCs and netbooks. Intel is also planning a new line of enterprise-class SSDs with 50GB, 100GB and 200GB capacities, which would more closely mimic the capacities of high-end hard disk drives used in servers today, an Intel representative said. Intel’s current line of enterprise-class drives, the X25-E series, have capacities of 32GB and 64GB
