Just love these little thangs.. Here's hoping for a 'reasonable' price for them (to some 'reasonable' would be a few dollars/pounds, but realistically it's more likely a few hundred pounds/dollars [naturally identicle prices for both sides of the Atlantic])
Bring it on!! I could have 2 of these inplace of one SATA (Space is my issue, not speed!)
WD My Passport Essential 500GB Portable Hard Drive - Black (USB 2.0)
WD Caviar Black 1TB Hard Drive (Serial ATA-300, 7,200 RPM, 32MB)
WD My Book Essential Edition External 1TB Hard Drive (USB 2.0, 16MB)
Intel X25-M Gen2 160GB 2.5" Solid State Drive (SATA)
WD My Passport Essential Portable 320GB Hard Drive - Black (USB 2.0)

100MBs write speed is an achievement in consumer class. I wonder what speeds the "enterprise" P200 is going to offer.

"Although Micron hasn’t said how much either drive will cost"
I think it's safe to assume that "If you have to ask, you can't afford it"

Micron = Crucial, right? Crucial are currently flogging 64GB SSDs (without much further detail) for [gulp] £648.59 including VAT. So......

Unless this thing is cheaper, I'd still rather just add another 80MB/sec Raptor to my array.
Mines the one with the dollah billz falling out of the pockets (not really).
