As expected, Samsung has started the production of its 2.5-inch 256GB SSDs. The read/write rates also seem to increase from the previous 200/160 MB/sec to 220/200 MB/sec. Based on the multi-level cell (MLC) technology, Samsung claims the SSD to be as fast as a 15,000 RPM HDD without the “noise, size, power and heating drawbacks”.
To please the corporate crowd, Samsung is providing an optional proprietary encryption software to provide full disk encryption to these SSDs.
