MTRON Unveils World's Fastest Solid State Drives

Fri 2008-05-16 - Posted by Patrick "MACMAC" MacMillan

MTRON has just introduced the PRO 7500 SATA-II SSD series, which features unprecedented read & write speeds.

Here’s what they had to say:

“Mtron Co., Ltd, a manufacturer of Solid State Drive (SSD) products in South Korea, announced today that they have completed the development of new PRO 7500 series for industrial purpose, and will be launching the new series in June.

Mtron’s new PRO 7500 series supports SATA II interface and provide the maximum read speed of 130MB/s and write speed of 120MB/s, becoming the fastest SSD in the market. With the development of their new PRO 7500 series, Mtron created another innovation to the SSD technology and proved once again that they are the leading manufacturer of SSD products in the highly competitive market.”

Specification-wise, the PRO 7500 series is quite a bit faster than the newest SATA-II SSD’s from OCZ & Samsung , which feature 100MB/s write & 80MB/s read speeds. However, that is to be expected as the PRO 7500 is an enterprise-class product, and will therefore be significantly more expensive than its mainstream counterparts.
