SSD Laptops from Dell

Solid State Drives have moved forwards over the last year and we are now seeing SSDs which are actually worth looking at for storage solutions. What sets these drives apart from the regular spinning platter is that there are no moving parts, they give out less heat and use less power. All 3 of these are perfect for users on the go as battery power needs to be cut back as much as possible to squeeze the most amount of usage out of one charge.

Dell is one company who have latched on to the idea and now have laptops with SSD. The SSD laptop will be introduced in the Ultramobile Latitude D420 and also the semi-rugged D620 ATG laptops. The SSDs in these will be 32GB versions which are just 1.8 inches in size. The drives are from SanDisk. To select this option when buying the laptop, it will set you back around $549. This is a little higher then the off the shelf price of $350, but cheaper then other vendors who are commanding $700 for the same device.

SSD is the way forward at the moment, and with the increasing capacity constantly hitting us it wont be long before a 64GB and a 128GB SSD is made as an option at an affordable price.
