Samsung is preparing to create a profitable end-of-the-year contract from the start of production on the fastest Solid State Drive (SSD) up to date, a 2.5-inch, 256GB device that promises to offer faster transfer rates than any other similar device on the market.

The company made the announcement during the Samsung Mobile Solution Forum at the Westin Taipei Hotel: This is the beginning of a new phase of evolution for the notebook PC, they said, as quoted by ZDNet Korea.

The new SSD will be 2.5 inches long, 9.5 mm thick and have sequential read speed of 200 Mb / s and sequential write speed of 160 MB / s. The drive is based on the Multi-Level Cell (MLC) — Technology and uses a SATA II interface.

Compared to all other SSD on the market, the Samsung device is based on three concepts: faster, smaller, better. By the end of the year, we could also apply to a smaller, 1.8-inch version, such as PC World reported.
