Die komplette Pressemitteilung: Indilinx Everest-Based Thin Form Factor Solid State Drives Now Shipping in LG Ultra-Thin Notebooks
SAN JOSE, CA Sept. 13, 2011 - Indilinx, a leading provider of solid
state drive (SSD) processors and a subsidiary of OCZ Technology Group
(Nasdaq:OCZ), today announced that OCZ Indilinx SSDs featuring the
Everest Series SATA 3.0 (6Gbps) platform are shipping in LG Electronics'
ultra-thin notebooks.
LG is now offering its ultra-thin series of notebooks with customized
Indilinx Everest-based ultra-slim SSDs with "fast boot" technology to
enable an industry-first, true instant-on functionality, while providing
consumers a faster, more energy-efficient storage option than
traditional mechanical hard disk drives (HDDs). As the market for
notebook computers continues to evolve consumers increasingly demand
improved performance, increased battery life and the "instant-on"
functionality that only SSDs can provide.
At only 7.5mm in height, this custom developed solution is 25 percent
slimmer than traditional 9.5mm 2.5-inch laptop hard drives and SSDs,
enabling the new breed of LG premium ultra-thin laptops to support outer
maximum z-height dimensions of less that 21mm, without sacrificing
storage capacity, speed, or reliability.
LG is currently shipping its LGP220 Series with the custom designed
ultra-slim Everest based SSD in 128GB capacities as standard equipment.
Inspired by the design heritage of its predecessor, the iF Design
award-winning LG P210, the new P220 Series features an ultra-thin design
and an array of cutting-edge components for superior performance.
"We are pleased that LG Electronics chose our Everest-based solid
state drives for their new ultra-thin notebooks starting with the
premium P220, leveraging the benefits of our technology to provide
customers a superior instant-on experience," said Bumsoo Kim, President
of Indilinx. "Increased performance, enhanced reliability, and lower
power consumption are key requirements that the Indilinx Everest-based
SSDs effectively address, enabling PC manufacturers like LG to create
slimmer, lighter, and faster solutions. The combination of Everest-based
SSDs and LG's proprietary slim bezel and premium display technology
provide customers with a new dimension in multimedia experience in an
ultra-thin and compact notebook."
LG P220 Series notebooks with Everest-based solid state drive
configurations began shipping in August in Korea with plans to expand
availability into select global markets shortly.
