Toshiba unveils new SSD models:
those new products are manufactured from NAND Flash chips engraved at 32 nm. Capacities depend on size of SSD:
- from 64 to 512 GB for 9.5 mm 2.5" model
- from 64 to 256 GB for 7 mm 2.5" model. This size seems to be the new standard format, as Intel chose it too for its X25 V2.
- from 64 to 256GB for 5 mm 2.5" model. Size compatible for MacBook Air GF 9400M.
Hereafter is a table summarizing all the information:
They all deliver 250 MB/s in reading mode, write data (sequentially) at up to 180 MB/s and support TRIM command function. As Apple is getting its SSD usually from Toshiba, we can expect to get as BTO a 256 GB SSD for the MacBook Air and up to 512 GB SSD for the high-end MacBook Pro. To further push SSD integration, Toshiba also offers its SSD models "naked" without the protection enclosure.
