After OCZ, now its time to Silicon Power to launch its eSATA flash memory. eSATA interface provides a higher performance in read/write operations than USB 2.0 interface, which limits transfer rate up to 480 Mbps (60 MB/s in theory, 48 MB/s in practical terms). Silicon Power eSATA flash memory offers read and write speeds of up to 90 MB/s and 30 MB/s, respectively, and can be found in 8 GB, 16 GB and 32 GB capacities. This new flash memory also features a mini USB 2.0 port that can be used in the case where an eSATA port is not available. In this case read and write speeds drop to 30 MB/s (read) and 25 MB/s (write). No word on pricing and availability has been disclosed.
