- editor's note:- GS Magic seems to have disappeared. The domain for
its website is no longer run by the original company. Whether it was driven out

from small hard drives to small
SSDs I don't know. See also:-

| the SSD story - market
survival of the fittest? |
The
emerging size of
the flash SSD market as you see it today was by no means inevitable. It owes a

thinking in this SSD's design? |
Does size really does matter in SSD
design?

inches wide is the SSD.
The novel and the short story both have their
place in literature and the pages look exactly the same. But you know from
experience which works best in different situations and why.
When
it comes to SSDs - Big versus Small SSD architecture - is something which was
in the designer's mind. Even if they didn't think about it that way at the time.

For designers, integrators,
end users and investors alike - understanding what follows from these simple
choices predicts a lot of important consequences. ...read the article | | | |
