(Nasdaq:OCZ), a leading provider of high-performance solid-state drives (SSDs) and memory modules for computing devices and systems, announces the launch of The RevoDrive X2 PCI-Express SSD, a follow-up to the successful launch of the first RevoDrive, with increased performance and capacity to serve high-performance computing consumers. The RevoDrive X2 upgrades the original architecture to deliver unprecedented speed up to 740MB/s and up to 120,000 IOPS, nearly triple the throughput of other high-end SATA-based solutions with a substantial reduction in the total cost of ownership (TCO) to the consumer. The product is available now through OCZ's global channel."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1288299531.usr1.jpg" style="border: 0;" /></p><p>This beautiful piece of hardware is available in sizes from 100 GB up to 960 GB, and it offers a significant boost over the first version. I can't find any pricing, but the v1 product is currently priced at $291 after rebate for 120 GB, so if the new version is the same, or cheaper, this is pretty tempting...</p>
