Appleinsider reports here on Intels new flash tchnology to be used in a variety of devices. Rumors circulated last week about a new Apple line of Notebooks that would utilise this type of technology so the timing is incredible.
These Intel drivew have a MTBF (Mean time between Failure) of 5 Million Hours, thats 570 Years! This compares to Existing ATA Hard drives MTBF’s of about 600,000 hours (almost a tenth of the lifetime of the flash drives).
The Flash drives are also ultra low power consuming and very very quick to read and write to, meaning our notebook computers may soon only need quick charging to run for hours!
