Price cuts of NAND flash-based products

Recommended Posts

Kingston To Cut Prices of NAND Flash-Based Products

Memory industry major Kingston is working towards reducing prices of its products that are based on NAND flash memory. This includes a large chunk of Kingston's product portfolio, as the only products excluded would be DRAM. NAND flash-based products include memory cards, USB flash drives, and SSDs. Kingston will reportedly cut prices by as much as 15 percent. Responding to a DigiTimes report, Kingston said that it is adjusting its NAND flash product pricing to coordinate with the rest of the industry to shift towards more advanced processes, and that it wants to enhance its presence in the NAND flash market. In other words, Kingston is clearing its inventory to make way for newer, more advanced technology.

SanDisk Follows Kingston, Cuts NAND Flash Product Prices

Following reports that Kingston is reducing prices of its NAND flash-based products by up to 15%, SanDisk too is reportedly preparing price-cuts of its own. Unlike Kingston, SanDisk's entire product portfolio is connected with NAND flash memory, it is the world's largest vendor of memory cards, and also has a vast lineup of USB flash drives. SanDisk will lower its prices just enough to maintain competitiveness with Kingston's products. The company maintains that initiating a price-cutting strategy is intended to boost sales volume and maintain the company's leading market share. According to DRAMeXchange, major NAND flash vendors are initiating price cuts to clear inventories, to make way for flash memory built on newer fabrication technologies.

Bonne nouvelle. Les prix des SSD et de plusieurs produits devrait continuer de baisser :)

Effectivement, très bonne nouvelle. Les SSD de marque Kingston sont relativement fiables et ne coûtent pas cher. Quoi demander de mieux pour l'utilisateur moyen ou même pour le geek en soi qui dispose de 10 ordinateurs? =)

Yep ! Sérieusement je met des V100 ou des V200 dans à peu près TOUS les PC mainstream que je monte et aucun n'est venu se plaindre à ce jour. Jsuis très a veille d'en mettre un dans le laptop de am blonde aussi, surement un V100 128gb qui donnera un 2e souffle au relativement vieux VAYO de ma douce moitier.

Mais à quand un vrai support TRIM en RAID?

Là les ventes vont exploser!

Les nouveau corsair performances PRO ont un built-in garbage collection.

The Performance Pro simply shines in non-TRIM environments due to its automatic, built in idle garbage collection feature. But what differentiates it from past ITGC-equipped drives is an ability to effectively hide this extra processing workload. Through the use of the large RAM buffer, Corsair has finally dialed in their ITGC routine so it keeps the drive fast over time while running transparently in the background without taking performance out at the knees. This combined with the Pro’s overall performance makes it possibly the best option of anyone who can’t rely on TRIM, particularly those who want to run a RAID configuration.

Bloc-notes est le meilleur bench pour connaitre la vitesse d'ouverture des logiciels.

Il y à une option dans CCleaner qui permet de "nettoyer l'espace libre" et ça très bien fonctionner sur mon raid0 de vertex2. J'ai récupérer par mal de performance en écriture sur mon setup. C'est pas comme neuf mais reste que j'ai pas mal de stock sur mes ssd. C'est une solution temporaire à un support de TRIM en raid0 voir un achat d'un SSD comme les corsair performance PRO avec le built in garbage.
