While solid state technology will give users a boost in performance, we’re here to talk about the key to balancing cost and performance. http://www.itworld.com/server-and-data-center/83525/four-considerations-ssd-putting-hardware-and-software-together#comments Server and data center Storage Opinion SSD tiered storage virtualization Wed, 04 Nov 2009 11:05:28 -0500 SamRacki 83525 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/storage/82957/automated-tiering-key-getting-value-ssds Though flash storage could be the most powerful tool yet for IT administrators who want to speed up access to frequently used data, reaping its benefits may require automation software that has just begun to emerge from the major storage vendors. http://www.itworld.com/storage/82957/automated-tiering-key-getting-value-ssds#comments Storage News flash storage SSD Thu, 29 Oct 2009 21:48:46 -0400 ITworld staff 82957 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/storage/82716/agility-ex-a-high-end-ssd-masses OCZ touts its latest solid-state disk (SSD) drive, the Agility EX, as the first "truly affordable" single-level cell (SLC) NAND flash-based drive available. With a retail price of $399, it's half the price of Intel's X25-E SLC-based SSD. But paying that kind of money for 60GB still seems a bit out of the average consumer's reach. http://www.itworld.com/storage/82716/agility-ex-a-high-end-ssd-masses#comments Storage Product review disk drive OCZ SSD Wed, 28 Oct 2009 17:27:24 -0400 ITworld staff 82716 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/hardware/82557/pc-world-100-best-products-2009 PC World looked at many outstanding hardware, software, sites, and services this year, evaluating each one on its design, functionality, performance, and impact.

Haleron in Columbia spent six months engineering a netbook with two Intel Atom processors to rev up the performance. The lower netbook pricing enables income-limited South Americans to use a netbook in place of a more expensive laptop for general computer needs. http://www.itworld.com/small-business/81815/hot-rod-netbook-sports-dual-cpus#comments Hardware Personal tech Small business Opinion Haleron intel atom SSD Swordfish N120 Windows XP Wed, 21 Oct 2009 12:04:11 -0400 James Gaskin 81815 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/hardware/81788/ssds-rise-during-snw At SNW, you had to stick around until Thursday morning to get a quick briefing on Sun's SSD strategy and products, but it was well worth it. http://www.itworld.com/hardware/81788/ssds-rise-during-snw#comments Hardware Storage News SSD Sun Wed, 21 Oct 2009 11:54:40 -0400 ITworld staff 81788 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/storage/80821/qampa-why-apples-co-founder-hot-solid-state-storage Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak accepted a position as chief scientist at solid state drive company Fusion-io earlier this year.
