SSD Drives, GB up – Price down

Today is a SSD (Solid State Disc) affordable but compared with a common 2,5” HDD still expensive. You can have ha 320GB or even a 500GB 2,5” HDD only for some bucks more than a 250GB drive. But an SSD would cost more than twice as much.
A quite cheap SSD with good transfer rates is about 30GB which you can have for about $100. But in the next few years that will change. The manufacturers expect SSD prices hit the same level as hard drives of the same capacity in the near future. And a 256GB SSD will be available this year but still for a high price I think.
