By: (more) | Laptops News | Posted: Jul 27, 2006 3:38 am

In early prep for Windows Vista, Samsung have unveiled a 4GB Solid State drive which will act as a high speed NAND flash cache for Vista equipped systems. According to The DailyTech, the pricing on these puppies will also be quite reasonable (under $200), certainly lower then one would expect for solid state storage, even if it's only able to hold 4GB of data.

 

Samsung's official announcement can be found here, and theres more info at The DailyTech, The Inquirer and Digit-Life.
