Posted on Monday, October 15 2007 @ 0:15 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck

Fusion-io presented a big solid state drive last week that offers 640GB of storage capacity.

Not only is the storage capacity of the drive very competitive with the storage offered by HDDs, it also features very attractive read and write speeds. The drive slides into a PCI Express x4 slot and has sustained read speed of 800MB/s and 600MB/s write speeds.

The price isn't really attractive though, the 640GB version will cost $18,999 when it will become available in Q1 2008. For those who don't have enough money for the 640GB version there will also be a 80GB, 160GB and 320GB model.
