We already told you about Intel’s new ultramobile SSDs, but their tiny size means high cost and low capacities, only up to 16GB. That’s why the company promised SATA-II SSDs in the 1.8″ and 2.5″ sizes with capacities up to 160GB, with read and write speeds exceeding Samsung’s 100MB/s and 70MB/s, respectively. Best of all, Intel says its goal is to drive down the currently exorbitant prices of solid-state storage to something less punitive, predicting two subsequent 50% drops in 2009 and 2010. [Daily Tech]
