4 GB SSD card terminates the Windows startup status

The solid-state storage device using NAND flash technology that Samsung has just launched can be used in conjunction with a conventional HDD to increase I / O performance on Microsoft's new generation Windows Vista operating system.

This 4 GB SSD card works to support Windows ReadyBoost technology to improve system response speed and minimize long-load time as well as application delay that computer users often see on hard drives. .

Windows ReadyBoost temporarily stores (cache) data into an SSD memory card without user intervention. Then, when the user or an application needs that data, it will be retrieved much faster than when using a traditional hard drive. While a HDD drives 100-200 requires a second, Samsung's SSD card can handle up to 5,000 requests at the same time.

Windows operating system compresses information on ReadyBoost devices and that means that the actual 4 GB SSD memory card can be stored in cache format up to 8 GB of data.

As an addition to both notebooks and desktops, the new Korean electronics product is not only used in conjunction with traditional HDD but also compatible with new generation of hybrid hard drives. The manufacturer said the card can be directly integrated into the motherboard via the ATA interface.
