PhotoFast Global Inc. a pioneer in creative, high quality and extreme
performance flash-based storage manufacturer, today revealed its new
line up of 1.8” PATA SSDs. Relied the new PATA SSD controller
introduced to the market, PhotoFast demand to bring even higher
transfer rates to meet the bottleneck where every user has experienced
with magnetic drives.
Upgrade market for laptops has always
been our major concern when introducing new storage technology to
consumers. Mobility is considered one of the most important
improvements in 2009. SSDs could actually improve performance of any
used laptop, which HDD happened to be the bottleneck of all. In the
other hand it made the laptop “portable”, means free movement while
power on. Once you have it, you’ll live with out it.
Garbage
Collection and TRIM command support has been commonly discussed in the
past few months. It sounds perfect to have TRIM support with Windows 7.
But what about those users sticking with windows Vista/XP? With the new
PATA controller PhotoFast adopted, the Garbage Collection function has
actually been built-in in hardware level. The Drive rearranges itself
when Laptop is in idle time. It might not benefit your Benchmark
software to run over and over. But for real life usage it’s a perfect
combination. While you’re not moving/creating files, it recovers to its
initial speed.
On 1.8” drives there’s always been maximum
capacity up to 128GB. And now PhotoFast has 256GB in all three models.
There’ll be plenty of free space for you to store music, movies and all
the precious photos.
