Samsung has developed a power-saving storage device using flash-based memory, providing up to 16 GB of data space.
The NAND-based Solid-State Disk (SDD) flash-based drive uses only five percent of the power current hard drives use, extending battery life in notebook and tablet PCs by up to ten percent.
About the same size as the usual hard disk drive, the flash drives can read data at 57 MBps, writing at 32 MBps. Though it is more than twice as fast as current hard drives, it is quieter and produces less heat.
Expected for immediate use in MP3 players, 3G mobile handsets, and digital cameras by August, the less temperature and humidity sensitive drives will be more suited for various environments.
