SilverStone’s HDDBoost is an interesting, if not completely unique, offering.

Available in your choice of 30GB, 64GB and 128GB capacities, the new drives promise some improved performance (with PCMark [...]
Corsair has kept quiet on the SSD front here recently, but it looks as if it’s about to ruffle a few feathers with two new laptop-centric drives.
