Micron Demos Super-Fast Solid-State Drives Running At 1GB Per
SecondS  Micron touted its super-fast RealSSD drives with
250MBps speed a few months back, but now its demonstrated a tech
that'll blow them out of the water: 1GBps transfer rates. It's a
bit cheaty since it uses two SSDs for a total of 16 data
channels to access the flash memory, but that does give it a
200,000 input/output operations per second speed. And that's too
fast for SATA II's bandwidth cap, so Micron had to use PCI
Express. It's a technology demonstrator, but Micron apparently
plans to commercialize it "soon". [Electronista]
