Grant Gochnauer sent along another cool benchmarking article showing how the Sandisk 32GB SSD (solid state drive) stacks up against a Seagate 160GB HD in a laptop.

The bottom lines are:

  • Read-speed is impressive and very consistent
  • Write-speed is surprisingly disappointing
  • Seek-speed and load times are insanely high (programs “instantly” load, Windows boots 9secs faster)
  • Price is ridiculous for SSD ($1k for 64GB)
