We've already seen a couple 2.5-inch SSDs hit
128GB, but
Mtron, our new favorite
crazy storagevendor, has just announced a 1.8-inch 128GB SSD. That's the same size
as the drives in the MacBook Air, Latitude XT, and Lenovo X300 -- and
since drive height isn't as closely related to storage capacity for
SSDs, look for 1.8-inch SSDs to become the new standard in most new
laptops as capacities increase and prices fall. Of course, "prices
fall" is the operative phrase here -- Mtron's 1.8-inch 128GB disk will
probably set you back some $1600 when it ships in April. Yeah, we'll
stick with the platters for now.
