our coverage is brought to you by a two-time case of the Year winner fantex the always incredible Corsair and NCIX we visited Moscone at CES and they've launched and teased some new and fast storage SSD solutions that use conventional SATA aMDA to solder and PCIe interfaces which were aimed at dropping the dollar per gigabyte spot and delivering impressive performance their reactor one terabyte SSD sells for $360 for one terabyte that's 36 cents per gigabyte they are committed to filling in that value market and this sure is attractive a lot of brands mark and included seem to be focusing more on the m2 interface and the PCIe storage solutions as well that brings us to this prototype Hyperion MDOT - Drive it's still in development but with over three hundred thousand I ops and 2.8 gigabyte per second reads and 1.2 gigabytes per second write speeds we are hoping Moscone to continue this trend of infiltrating the value market without too many compromises another prototype they showed off was the Scorpion XC that uses a stacked of 512 gigabyte boards using a Marvel controller for a0 the drives are aimed to be available from 980 gigabytes all the way up to 4 terabytes at 50 cents per gigabyte price point this looks like it might be a 1/2 slot card just because of the way the stacking is laid out it's quite thick but we'll have to wait and see until q3 of this year of the final release of the Scorpion XC
