Silicon Power introduces SSD drive with dual interface, the M10   Silicon%20Power%20SATA%20SSD%20M10

So what makes Silicon Power’s new SATA II SSD M10 drive unique? They gave it two interface connectors–in the form of SATA II and USB–allowing it to work as either a portable external drive or an internal SSD drive. Silicon Power covered all the bases for the dual interface idea to work; it looks good enough for external purposes with a stylized shell, and it’s sized like a regular 2.5-inch hard drive so installing it into a chassis shouldn’t be a problem.

The drive is available in 32GB-256GB capacities and features Error Correction Code (ECC) and flash block Wear Leveling technology to give it reliability and longevity. Of course, as a solid state disk, it has no moving parts, so it trumps regular disk-based hard drives on ruggedness, transfer speeds, and power consumption.

The M10 comes with a 2-year warranty. Price and availability isn’t available at the moment.
