Warp factor 3
A week ago we brought you the news that both OCZ and Super Talent were launching new, high-end solid state drives (SSDs). Now Patriot has announced v3 of its Warp high-end SSD range, which, as you'd expect, improves on v2.
The previous version has capacities of up to 128GB and read/write speeds of 175/100MB/s. New, improved Warp goes up to 256GB and has read/write speeds of 240/160MB/s.
Just to remind you, of their consumer offerings OCZ has a maximum capacity of 150GB and speeds of 200/160, while Super Talent goes up to 256GB with equal read/write speeds.
"Our new 256GB Warp SSD v3 now gives the consumer the fastest data-transfer rates plus all the storage space large enough to quench their multimedia thirst," said Meng Jay, flash product manager for Patriot.
"It wasn't long ago that SSD's maxed out at 64GB with read speeds of 130MB/s, now with the Warp v3 we literally 'Warp' into capacities that most consumers demand and speeds far faster than current conventional hard drives."
