Samsung To Launch First NAND Flash-Based Solid State Disk PCs

Shaveta Bansal - All Headline News Contributor

Seoul, South Korea (AHN) - Samsung is all set to release the world's first PCs embedded with a 32-gigabyte (GB) NAND flash-based solid state disk (SSD).

The new feature will mark the first time that the NAND flash has moved into a commercial mobile computing application, says DM Asia.com.

The merits of SSD involve its ability to read 300 times faster and write 150 percent quicker than regular hard drives, making it quicker to process large volumes of data.

SSD can withstand about twice the impact that would otherwise cripple a regular hard disk drive.

Flash memory helps easy retrieval of stored data than traditional hard drives when PCs are dropped or liquid is spilled on the device.

The PCs are expected to hit the market from early June.
