Lenovo will start including SSDs (solid-state drives) as a storage option in more laptops to meet increasing user demand, a company official said.

The company introduced SSDs in four laptops launched Monday and more will be seen across its ThinkPad T-series laptops as products are refreshed, said Charles Sune, worldwide segment manager at Lenovo.

The SSD laptops introduced Monday include the ultraportable Thinkpad X200 and the ThinkPad W500, T400 and T500. Lenovo is offering the 64G-byte capacity for now.

Very cool, it will be interesting to see how long it is before the solid state disk becomes more mainstream, the challenge being cost against size. For the business market though, the power and reliability could be real drivers for the solid state powered laptop.
