Source : DailytechIf the SSD market is literally exploding, it is mostly linked to marketing campaign and announcement of products which are not available yet for most of them. In addition, if the numbers of companies claiming to deliver the best SSD increases exponentially, prices are not really getting down; and SSD remain mostly used by OEM for high-end notebook. Things might change as Supertalent decided to bring a cheap SSD to consumer market: one will be able to get a 120 GB 1.8" SATA SSD for "ONLY" 649 USD, so about 50% less than the previous average price for such storage space! Based on MLC chips, it features read speeds of 120 MB/sec and write speeds of less impressive 40 MB/sec. Supertalent will also offer 2 other models with lower storage space, 30 and 60 GB, which will then be even cheaper, respectively, 299 and 449 USD. Supertalent claims to be willing to introduce such SSD models as soon as possible. We would be very happy to get such SSD for a test, it would be perfect in a MacBook, but Supertalent will have to offer a PATA version for being able to install it in a MacBook Air.
