During a tech conference over in Italy, where Intel have been displaying their upcoming roadmap for the CPU market, they have also touched on what the SSD side of their business will look like over the next few months. Although Intel does cover both the consumer and enterprise sides of the market as reflected in the roadmap, what is particularly interesting is the consumer trail towards the end of this year.
Not only does the map show that the will be expecting to see the successor to the 730 Series SSD around Q4, known as ‘August Ridge’ at this moment in time, but it also gives us an indication that there will be mSATA and M.2 variants of the 750 series coming to market around the same sort of time – a key move for any SSD manufacturer who wants to stay at the forefront of the market.
Based on our knowledge of their competitors and where the market is targeted, we may expect to see drives ranging from 64GB in a mSATA format and 128GB in M.2 and 2.5″ formats, growing up to around 960GB on the upper end of the scale. Although we do not have detailed information on the drives specifications, we have word that they will be built on Intel’s 20nm NAND although the controller has not ben detailed at this moment, nor pricing for that matter.
