Super Talent has announced its new storage device, the Storage POD Mini Portable USB 3.0 Solid State Drive. It measures 110mm x 68mm x 10mm which means its easy to travel with and ideal for users who are constantly on-the-go. It features an all-aluminum casing to protect the device and to make the device more durable. The Storage POD Mini uses a SandForce SSD processor and supports the USB 3.0 interface, it promises to deliver an ultra fast 260MB/s data transfer speed.
The Storage POD from Super Talent comes in three different models, there is a 60GB, 120GB and 240GB model.
PCIe 3.0 increases per-land bandwidth from 500MB/sec to 1GB/sec, this means for an x16 slot, double the bandwidth from 8GB/sec to 16GB/sec. Impressive, but will we see anything close to double the performance? Not now, and not in games. GPU compute tasks do see a difference in performance, however. <
I have been going to CES for several years, and Microsoft has always had significant presence there. They always have a huge booth that is located at the entrance of Central hall, and you literally cant miss it. This is going to change.
