Silicon Power today unleashed a new Solid State Drive – the E20. The 2.5 “SATA Solid State Drive SSD constraints unique challenges developed technology to increase read speeds of up to 250MB s and write speeds of up to 230MB s to take, both large SSD data transfer rates on the market.

In addition, E20 also supports TRIM command. It is specific to Windows 7 user, so use it for a quick ten seconds OS boot time and it ready to use software. For users using other OS provides E20 garbage collection technology. It improves SSD’s already strong performance and prevents bad computer answers from long hours of continuous operation. It is the ingredient to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Even with the built-E20 DDR2 DRAM cache, even during the current write-intensive situations, computer is not behind. This increases not only read and write the SSD’s performance, it also extends SSD’s durability. It comes in 32GB, 64GB, 128GB, 256GB and storage capacity like on Acer AM3400-U2052.
