Corsair Brings 32GB Nova Series SSD To Under $70
Every other day, it seems that some company, somewhere is producing yet another solid state drive. It's good for the industry, and it's good for the consumer. But it certainly makes choosing that much harder. But Corsair's newest drive is very specific in who it's aimed at: the SSD newbie, of sorts. The company's latest is a 32GB Nova Series SSD, but the real surprise isn't the drive nor the size, but the price.
For a limited time (which will hopefully become more permanent soon), Corsair is offering their 32GB Nova SSD for just $69.99 after mail-in rebate. The drive has read speeds up to 195 MB/s and write speeds up to 70 MB/, with 64MB of built-in cache. Less than $100 for a new SSD? If you have no need for loads of internal storage, or have space for two drives within your notebook, this sounds like a deal you can't afford to pass up.
