Hi there


Right for the first round of deals, we have Solid State drives, lots of great deals here guys:-


Kingston SSDNow V Series 64GB 2.5" SATA-II Solid State Hard Drive Kit

http://images.novatech.co.uk/ev-kin-ssd641.jpg

Adding a solid-state drive to a desktop already using a standard hard disk drive is a smart and efficient way to upgrade. Transferring the operating system and applications from the HDD to the SSD allows the solidstate drive to be used as a bootable drive that takes full advantage of the speed of the Flash-based technology. The SSD and the HDD then co-exist to drive optimal performance in the upgraded desktop. SSDNow V Series drives offer performance gains and power consumption reductions at a fraction of the cost of a new system. For added peace of mind, they?re backed by 24/7 tech support, a three-year warranty and legendary Kingston reliability.

Samsung PB22-J 128GB 2.5" SATA-II MLC Solid State Hard Drive

http://images.novatech.co.uk/ev-sam-ssd12e1.jpg

Samsung's Solid State Drive (SSD) is an advanced NAND flash-based solution for traditional storage, leveraging the company's longtime leadership in memory technology. This next-generation solution offers several advantages over rotating magnetic media such as significantly lower power consumption, remarkable ruggedness, high reliability, less weight and outstanding performance.

The SSD system is currently selling as an alternative high-end storage device for notebooks by many major PC manufacturers. The SSD's weight is less than that of a conventional hard drive, thus further increasing easy system portability. The device also uses significantly less power. This gives users more battery life.

Samsung's Solid State Drive performance is greater than traditional storage. In addition, random search times are the faster on the SSD, which is not subject to fragmentation and maintains its performance over time.

As a non-volatile storage device, the SSD has no moving parts such as the motor, disks and heads of a hard drive. Thus it eliminates spin-up time, seek time and rotational latency while delivering sustained high-speed data transfers. The SSD's lack of moving parts makes it noise-free and its ultra-low power consumption virtually eliminates heat emissions.

The SSD is also highly rugged, standing up to shock and vibration. These performance features make it well suited to a broad range of users. These include "road warrior" business professionals, as well as those in demanding military and industrial areas. Samsung designed the SSD's footprint to be interchangeable with a hard disk drive. Furthermore, because the SSD is form-factor agnostic, the flash components can be arranged to meet virtually any size or shape configurations.

Features
- Read Speed of 220MB/s
- Write Speed of 200MB/s
- Onboard 128MB Cache
- Samsung Controller


Price: £204.99 +VAT (£235.74 Inc. VAT)

Hi there

Price on them is increasing unfortunately with SSD being based on memory and memory going up pretty much pricing keeps going up with every new batch we get in.

Christmas is on the Horizon, I cant really remember a year since I started building my own PC that prices didnt start increasing especially memory. Prices wont fall till at least January / February normally but then again who knows for sure.

Supply/Demand is greater from now till Christmas especially with the added fact that Intel released the P55 Chipset so more people will want DDR3 Ram & alot switching from their DDR2 setups.

I'm buying new ram too, my DDR3 Ram runs at 1.8v need some 1.65v ram, balls. :( lol
