  • Capacity, Speed
  • Price

  • Very fast, low power consumption, runs cool
  • Very expensive

  • Abstract:  Le premier SSD de Western Digital souffre du même problème, mais il a l'avantage d'offrir des performances appréciables en lecture et il intègre, lui, le TRIM. Par contre, là aussi, le tarif est clairement excessif pour du..
