64GB SATA II SSD, Samsung Expands Its Line of Solid State Drives

The high premium that one has to pay for solid state drives, doesn’t seem to be pulling customers back from stores. It’s an endless race of new companies venturing into the market for flash based solid state storage and coming up with up-to-the-minute products.

To solidify its presence in the SDD market, Samsung has announced introduction of 64GB SSD both in 1.8” as well as 2.5” format. However the chief element of the breaking news is that these latest drives follow SATA II interface, which takes the write and read speed of solid disk drives into the next level. To be more specific, SATA II offers a sequential write speed of 100MB/s over 45MB/s available in SATA I interface, and sequential read speed of 120 MB per second over 60 MB/s available earlier on.

At the same time, the latest 64GB SSD features enhanced power saving and will only consume half of what was required earlier on in solid state drives.

While demand for SSD’s continues to grow exponentially, Samsung stays at the top front of technological innovations, delivering avant-garde solutions.

SlimEdge Design, Fujitsu’s Innovative Notebook Display Goes Public

From now on, notebook consumers will not have to choose a single option between screen size and portability, they can merrily go for both when they buy LifeBook S6510.

The efforts of Fujitsu’s research department have given birth to a notebook model that easily stands out from the crowd owing to Fujitsu’s SlimEdge design.

The SlimEdge Desgin features Fujitsu’s exclusive skill in expanding the screen real estate of an otherwise 13.3” display notebook into a 14.1” one. That’s right, LifeBook S6510 accommodates a 303.4 x 189.6mm active display (equivalent to 14.1” screens) within the boundaries of its 316 x 235 mm outer walls (equivalent to that of 13.3” screens).

The 12.5% expansion in notebook’s display size is made possible by cutting down most of the screen’s conventional sidewalls, precisely from 12.65mm to 5.6mm. The benefits that this modest albeit challenging trick has brought for customers are fantastic. Thanks to the SlimEdge design, one can now sit back in a more relaxed way while still enjoying the advantages that come with light and portable 13.3” portable notebook. Furthermore, the screen now features a 16:10 aspect ratio, which gives enough room for users to open two horizontal windows simultaneously.

Overall, the SlimEdge design results in users enjoying more of display size without any corresponding boost in weight.
