HighPoint Announces SATA 6Gbps Host Adapter Series
We should be seeing more and more SATA III (or 6Gbps) enabled products start popping up over the coming months, with the standard likely to be most useful for solid state drives as speeds continue to increase. Highpoint is well known for its RocketRAID line of controller cards and has just added the Rocket 600 series of PCI Express 2.0 based cards to its product lineup.
The Rocket 620 and 622 provide two SATA (620) or eSATA ports (622) and are fully ACHI compliant, so you should be able to drop them into most Windows, Linux or Mac OS X based systems without having to worry about drivers. They are also backwards compatible with SATA I and II interface drives. Both should be available at the end of the month for MSRPs of $69.99 and $79.99 respectively.

Intel Makes Advances in Phase Change Memory
Numonyx, a joint venture between Intel and STMicroelectronics, has announced a possible breakthrough in phase change memory (PCM). PCM represents the likely next step in computer memory for a variety of reasons. The newest announcement reveals that the companies have successfully stacked several layers of PCM on top of each other. By stacking several layers together, future memory will be cheaper and more powerful than the current NAND flash based memory. PCM will be able to accomplish these improvements as it will require less voltage, meaning the transistors can be scaled down to 5nm. NAND flash limits transistors to 20nm, and smaller transistors means more memory in a smaller area.
