Samsung has upped the capacity of its Flash-based SSD line to 64GB, offering the unit in the media player- and notebook-friendly 1.8in form factor.

The 64GB drive is faster than its predecessor too, with maximum read and write speeds of 64MBps and 45MBps, respectively – 4.3 and 6.4 times greater than a typical 80GB hard disk drive, Samsung claimed, and 1.2 and 1.5 times faster than its 32GB SSD.

Excellent, I’m actually looking forward to buying my next laptop with a ssd drive, it should be a lot more effective, and I wont worry about the drive getting damaged, interestingly is this going to make my laptop cooler? There were always complaints from different people of their laptops running hot, I know this tended to be cpu, but the disk being solid state should help a little.
