PhotoFast G-Monster PCIe SSD, the Ultimate 1TB SSD Setting for Your Desktop
SSDs are the future of fast computing, granted the technology is young and SSD life span is WAY shorter than the average HDD, however, SSDs will boost PC performance.
Today in Japan PhotoFast announced their G-Monster PCIe SSD with 256GB, 512GB and 1TB and stunning performance, 750MB/s reading speed and 700MB/s writing speed.
So far there no prices available, but expect a launch in April.

This is April’s Fool joke
We do not have April Fool Joke in Japan… And Photofast is a reliable SSD Maker herer
Very very nice, B*U*T*
How much? $1 billion ?
sweet….. hope they launch before april 23th
that way i can bring one with me from my trip to japan in a few days
may or may not launch on april 23 but rest assured you have to bring around a thousand dollars to grab one of these.
there are also a us counterpart created by OCZ. and another maker i forgot.
this is a totally feasible and fast solution if only my old motherboard will support booting from PCI Express, omg it doesnt coz i only have 1 pcix and gpu uses it, oh well i have to buy that core i7 PC too.
hope they only price the lowest model around 20,000 yen so people like me can afford it.
update:
make that 2000 dollars
or 200,000 yen.
do you know if it is possible to boot win xp from PCI-E card like this? on a asus P5B mobo?
Theres other products with similar specs too, fusion iodrive was the first -now OCZ is also in the game and Photofast is one more.
Of course there might be same products with different names -like is the case with Intel SSD’s and Buffalo.
Anyhow, 4/8/16 x PCI-E cards are really welcomed.
I BTW have waited this to come couple years allready and have searched and searched where to buy this.
There was non until Iodrive and i really welcome this new products because competition makes prices go down so that even normal user might get this HD bottleneck down in near future.
Thanks!
