Intel has introduced new SATA 6 gigabit-per-second (Gb/s) solid-state drive (SSD), Intel Solid-State Drive 330 Series that delivers accelerated storage performance.
Intel SSD 330 Series is suitable for upgrading desktop or notebook PCs and will be available in 60 gigabytes (GB), 120GB and 180GB.
The new SSDs offer a more rugged, low-power storage application that improves system performance to keep up with today’s I/O-intensive applications.
The Intel SSD 330 Series contains Intel 25-nanometer multi-level cell (MLC) NAND memory and comes in a standard 2.5-inch/9.5mm form factor as a replacement to a slower-performing HDD.
The SATA 6Gb/s interface doubles the bandwidth of Intel’s current SATA 3Gb/s Intel SSD 320 Series, providing up to 500 megabytes-per-second (MB/s) sequential read speeds and up to 450MB/s sequential write speeds for improved data transfers.
The new release can also be used in a dual-drive desktop PC configuration to speed up boot times and applications speeds, or as a single-drive notebook upgrade.
