According to the latest leaked official product roadmap, the update pace of Intel SSD solid-state drives has slowed down, and the latter two generations of successors of the high-end models of the SSD 510 series will postpone the release one quarter. SSD 510 series adopts 2.5-inch size and 34nm MLC NAND flash memory, capacity 120/250GB, transmission interface SATA 6Gbps, is one of the best high-end solid-state hard disk on the market.
The next-generation "Cherryville" was originally planned to be launched in the fourth quarter of this year, but it has been postponed to the first quarter of 2012, but there should be no change in specifications, or 25nm MLC flash chips, 60/120/180/240/480GB five kinds of capacity , SATA 6Gbps transmission interface.
The next generation of "King Crest" was also postponed from the second quarter of 2012 to the third quarter. It is reported that MLC NAND flash memory chip technology will once again evolve to 20nm, but the specific capacity has not yet been determined, the interface is still SATA 6Gbps.
The mainstream and entry-level segments will still be dominated by the SSD 320/310/311 series. "Hawley Creek" will still be released on schedule this quarter, or 2.5-inch mSATA 3Gbps interface specification, SLC NAND flash memory, capacity 20/24GB. It was thought that it would replace the 311 series and become the new partner of SRT acceleration technology, but now it looks like the 311 series will not be eliminated immediately.
As for the next generation "Lincoln Crest" of the SSD 320 series, it was originally scheduled for the third quarter of 2012, but this time it did not appear on the roadmap and I do not know what is going wrong.
