My timing was all wrong - (my timing is always wrong when money is involved :-))Here, Toshiba is proposing a solid idea at the upcoming Consumer Electronics show - a solid state disk (SSD) drive that can actually solve real problems and move things forward, and there, I own Sandisk stock (that I thought would ride this wave) that's down in the doldrums. This sad, solid state, despite Apple moving the needle with its MacBook Air (which offers a 128 MB SSD at an exorbitant price) and smart phones becoming popular computing devices!
25% is what they expect the SSD market to be at by 2012.
With no moving parts, SSDs are silent, generate little heat, and can handle shocks and vibrations more effectively than standard hard drives. Data-transfer rates can be faster than hard drives, and booting a large operating system such as Windows Vista can be quick work for SSDs. In addition, SSDs consume less power compared to traditional hard drives and are lighter.
I should buy more Sandisk stock now? NOT! (My luck....)

Baidu announced recently that they will be using solid state memory in place of hard disks in all its search servers. Not sure if it is fully rolled out.
