Transcend offers ExpressCard SSD up to 16 GB
Transcend already offers internal SSD drives, so why not externals too? Their newest offering is available in capacities of 2-, 4-, 8- and 16-GB for your mobile device. Even more interesting is the interface: it’s an ExpressCard 34 device. The card is certfied for Windows Vista ReadyBoost, although the maximum supported cache size for that function is 4 GB. Still, that can leave you with additional storage space on the drive if you buy the 8- or 16-GB flavors. No ExpressCard slot? No worries as there’s a USB adapter included for you. I was most interested in the price, just to monitor the SSD market, but unfortunately, there’s no details on price or availability at this time.
