2009 will be the year of the SSD?

Given the slowness that we have seen this year for the first SSD disks worthy of this name to arrive, we thought that it would still take a very a long time for this market to mature.
But it seems that this market has become wrapped up. Samsung who already have a 128 GB SSD disk that is used in the new portable range of Apple have announced that they have started the production of new models with double this capacity. But the best remains to come. The data flow announced for these products (containing memory MCL) are 220 MB/s for reading and 200 MB/s for writing. Samsung thus will join Intel which has only the excellent 80 GB disk with such mind boggling performances, and who have announced a still better160 GB.
The price of these products will remain certainly very high (probably above 600€), however their acceptable capacity and their performances that far surpass the traditional hard drives should open a top-of-the-range market to them. Manufacturers of less powerful disks will then have no other choice than to exploit the prices.
