The size of the drives is 2.5 inches, Serial ATA 3.0 interface (bandwidth up to 6 Gbit / s).







In general, great news - after all, the more manufacturers of SSD, so hopefully, prices will fall faster and models will be updated. Unfortunately, while the price of the presented drives is unknown, but it is unlikely to be too low.
