Crucial ha lanciato di recente la linea di drive a stato solido, o SSD (State State Drive), siglata v4 SSD. La nuova proposta della controllata di Lexar è dedicata agli utenti che fanno riferimento al segmento mainstream del mercato consumer per l'acquisto di storage in tecnologia flash caratterizzato da un costo contenuto.

La linea v4 SSD di Crucial include al momento quattro varianti caratterizzati da una capacità di memorizzazione pari a 32GB, 64GB, 128GB e 256GB nei quattro casi. Tutti i drive hanno una interfaccia di tipo SATA 3Gb/s (SATA II) verso il mondo e garantisco una velocità di trasferimento dati massima pari a 230MB/s in lettura e a 190MB/s in scrittura.

Crucial ha anche ufficializzato il valore del MSRP (prezzo ufficialmente consigliato dal produttore) pari a $49.99, $69.99, $99.99 e $189.99 per le unità da 32GB, 64GB, 128GB e 256GB rispettivamente. I nuovi SSD sono compatibili con i sistemi Microsoft Windows e Apple Mac.

Crucial, a leading global brand of memory and storage upgrades, introduced the Crucial v4 Solid State Drive (SSD), designed to deliver substantial yet affordable performance gains for mainstream SATA 3Gb/s (SATA II) systems, the primary performance capability of computers purchased before 2011. Available in 32GB, 64GB, 128GB, and 256GB capacities with MSRPs of $49.99, $69.99, $99.99, and $189.99 respectively, the Crucial v4 SSD can be purchased now through select global channel partners, or direct through www.crucial.com.

The Crucial v4 SSD offers read speeds up to 230MB/s and write speeds up to 190MB/s, enabling faster startup times, faster application downloads, faster transfer data speeds, and increased reliability compared to traditional hard drives. The v4 SSD joins the m4 SSD and Adrenaline Solid State Cache Solution to round out the award-winning Crucial SSD portfolio.

"The Crucial v4 SSD boils down to two things: performance and value," said Robert Wheadon, senior worldwide product manager, Crucial. "Most consumers realize that SSDs help their computers start quicker and run faster, and are a more durable alternative to hard drives, but many don't realize that most SSDs outperform the data transfer capabilities of their SATA II machines. With the Crucial v4 SSD, we've come up with a product that's designed to bring the most value out of a SATA II system without paying for extra performance that can't be used."

Leveraging the industry-leading memory, design, and manufacturing capability of Micron Technology, Inc., the Crucial v4 SSD is backed by a three-year limited warranty, and is compatible with both PC and Mac systems.
