SuperTalent releases new relatively affordable SSD drives

After being successful with memory chips, SuperTalent is extending its reach to SSD drives. Its new models that have capacities of 30, 60 and 120GB will cost $299, $449 and $699 respectively. The good thing is that they incorporate the newer MLC (Multi-Level Cell) technology. As previously mentioned, MLC technology is one of the technical features that will propel SSD drives to widespread adoption.
The new SSDs are external units utilising the SATA connection protocol. Given that USB memory sticks get dangerously close to the smaller capacities, going for 60GB or 120GB is an expensive exercise. However it is a sign that prices start to go down.
