Solid state drives (SSDs)

are a high-end options on some notebooks. Currently, they seem to be the exclusive domain of executives who insist on having something a little bit better than their minions. SSD is awesome because it requires less power than a spinning hard drive to run, is way faster, doesn't heat up as much as a spinning drive, and is much more durable to boot. With this 128GB SSD kit from Imation, an SSD in your notebook (or netbook) takes a step closer to reality. The aforementioned executives will have to find the next big thing to waste the IT department money on. The heart bleeds.
