larger SSD's are about to get cheaper! OK, so it might be a while but this is still a big step in $/gb.

Sweet. Cheaper drives to come and..... faster!

ONFI 3 increases interface bandwidth from a max of 200MT/s (IMFT 25nm was limited to 166MT/s) to 333MT/s

As well same amount of write cycles as 25nm tech. SSD's are on the up and up. Ah be a little bit before we see these in drives but its getting closer and closer to my goal of getting 500-700Gig of SSD for my main rig at a reasonable cost to ditch mech drives entirely from the system except for backups.
