ZitZot: Seagate unveils first SSD drive, Pulsar

Seagate have finally joined the SSD segment with their first solid-state drive. The Seagate Pulsar packs up to 200GB of SLC flash memory into a 2.5-inch enclosure, and the company are claiming 240MB/s sequential read and 200 MB/s sequential write speeds.

The Pulsar has a SATA interface and Seagate have squeezed in some power loss protection so that, even if your system loses power, you’ll hopefully not lose everything you were working on. They’re also quoting a 0.44 percent AFR (average failure rate).
