Team Group Inc. launched C091. It is a new designer item boasting high quality in both internal capacity and external design. The large 32GB capacity hides inside of a light and beautifully designed body, and the sleek gliding mechanism fully manifested the innovative abilities of Team Group. The easy-to-use gliding design makes C091 popular item, which takes only a slight squeeze on the USB interface to slide open the user-friendly pen drive.
C091 comes in sapphire blue, amber brown and crystal gray. The user-friendly slide design ingeniously hides the USB interface under the body to eliminate the trouble of storing the cap and adds to the sleekness of the overall design. C091 is light weight (only 16g) but comes in big capacities in three choices- 8GB, 16GB, and 32GB, as well as excellent performance in high-speed transmission (20-25MB/Sec reading speed and 5-10MB/Sec writing speed). The thoughtful design make C091 versatile enough to satisfy the needs of all users.

Density Dynamics, a majority owned subsidiary of Speedus Corp., announced today it has released a new DRAM solid state drive (DR-SSD) designed exclusively with DRAM memory.
DR-SSD technology is now available in the newly available DRAM Jet.io(TM). The Density Dynamics proprietary design utilizes DRAM memory for "hot" core storage functions in a uniquely compact 3.5-inch form factor alleviating I/O bottlenecks using dramatically lower power than other storage solutions.
"We use DRAM as the core of our solid state drive because it doesn't degrade like flash based SSDs used by most SSD vendors. Prospective customers have told us of their real world experience with flash SSD degradation for high volume random write (w-ops) applications. DRAM Jet.io targets customer applications that do not require a non-volatile solution. No other SSD suppliers have a 100% DRAM SSD in a 3.5" form factor available today," said Dave Wilkerson, CTO of Density Dynamics. "While the market for SSDs has grown dramatically, the focus on flash based solutions has left many customers wondering about the durability limitations of flash as we have explained in our recently published white paper," added Wilkerson

Toshiba America Electronic Components, Inc. (TAEC), a U.S. marketing arm of Toshiba Corporation for electronic components, today announced a series of solid state drive (SSD) modules using the latest generation Toshiba 32nm MLC NAND flash, at Intel Developers Forum 2009. The Toshiba SG2 modules are offered in two types, one based on the new low-profile mini-SATA (mSATA) interface standard and the other a Half-Slim type, which uses a SATA connector. The drives are available in 30GB and 62GB modules. Volume production will start in October.
The two types of modules, each smaller than a business card, provide greater design flexibility and save space and cost compared to SSDs with hard disk drive form factors and cases. The 62GB module is only one seventh the volume and one eighth the weight of a 2.5-inch form factor SSD, and consumes half the power. With interface speeds up to 3 gigabits per second (Gb/s), a maximum sequential read speed of 180 megabytes per second (MBps) and a maximum sequential write speed of 70MBps, the modules will help bring the performance advantages of SSDs to notebooks, portable electronics and embedded systems. An advanced controller features a translation mode, which enables any drive configuration, and the drive supports 28-bit LBA (Logical Block Address) mode commands and 48-bit LBA mode commands. Multi-word DMA, Ultra-DMA modes and Advanced PIO commands are supported. The drives have an optional capability for secure Full Disk Encryption (FDE) backup that prevents unauthorized data access.
