Toshiba has plans to enhance its SSD line with a new 256GB model that targets both netbooks as well as UMPCs. Hmm, with Microsoft restricting netbooks running Windows XP to a 160GB hard drive cap, does this limitation apply to SSDs as well? Something worth pondering over. Anyhows, I digress. The new Toshiba 256GB SSD will feature a maximum read and write speed of 120MB/s and 70MB/s respectively, thanks to a SATA interface. No idea if this is able to survive a 3-story fall though.
