Power Quotient International (PQI) have introduced their new 2.5″ PQI X25-M SATAII SSD which boasts an impressive range of features not least of which is a purported maximum read speed of 250MB/s and a maximum write speed of 70MB/s.

Utilising Intel MLC flash modules, the new 2.5″ PQI X25-M SATAII SSD, which is offered in both 80GB and 160GB capacities, is aimed specifically at notebooks usage thanks not only to its considerable resistance to shocks – the drive comes with a specific shock rating of 1500G and vibration resistance measured at 20G – but also on account of its particularly low power consumption requirements which seems the PQI X25-M solid state drive drawing just 0.15W when active and a mere (decidedly impressive) 0.06W whilst in sleep mode. Or, to put matters into perspective, users should see around 30% extra notebook endurance (thanks to lesser power requirements) when compared to similar SSDs.
Add into the equation an equally impressive 0.85ms access time latency, and there’s no doubt that the PQI X25-M SATAII SSD bears serious consideration for those looking to update their storage requirements though, as at the time of writing, it has to be said we are yet to ascertain unit pricing.
