PhotoFast G-Monster PCIe SSD, the Ultimate 1TB SSD Setting for Your Desktop

SSDs are the future of fast computing, granted the technology is young and SSD life span is WAY shorter than the average HDD, however, SSDs will boost PC performance.

Today in Japan PhotoFast announced their G-Monster PCIe SSD with 256GB, 512GB and 1TB and stunning performance, 750MB/s reading speed and 700MB/s writing speed.

So far there no prices available, but expect a launch in April.

may or may not launch on april 23 but rest assured you have to bring around a thousand dollars to grab one of these.

there are also a us counterpart created by OCZ. and another maker i forgot.

this is a totally feasible and fast solution if only my old motherboard will support booting from PCI Express, omg it doesnt coz i only have 1 pcix and gpu uses it, oh well i have to buy that core i7 PC too.
hope they only price the lowest model around 20,000 yen so people like me can afford it.

Theres other products with similar specs too, fusion iodrive was the first -now OCZ is also in the game and Photofast is one more.

Of course there might be same products with different names -like is the case with Intel SSD's and Buffalo.

Anyhow, 4/8/16 x PCI-E cards are really welcomed.
I BTW have waited this to come couple years allready and have searched and searched where to buy this.
There was non until Iodrive and i really welcome this new products because competition makes prices go down so that even normal user might get this HD bottleneck down in near future.

Thanks!
