Silicon Power has just announced their new 256GB SATA II 2.5-inch SSD drive, which can hold twice more than the previous 128GB. Besides the extra storage space, almost everything remains the same, including a maximum reading speed of 165 MB/s and writing speed of 95MB/s. Silicon Power also states that the SSD has a latency of 0.2 milliseconds, with a new controller for quick access to data. As usual, there are other “specifications” such that resistance to falls, shock and vibration. Too bad that the price and availability are not known, but it should remain in the same price range as those of other similar SSD drives on sale now.
