Intel to enter the hard-disk market
Intel announced that it will launch solid-state hard disks (SSDs), which to replace the mechanical hard disk drives. This news should worry the other hard disks manufacturers, as Intel did not have a share of the HD market.
Capacities of the Intel SSDs would range between 32 and 160 GB, much more than Samsung’s 32 to 64 GB hard disks. The disks will be in SATA form, and the most important advantages would be the low power consumption and the awesome shock resistance (3-4 times better than typical mechanical disks).
