    Do anyone know when 500gb SSD will be available on the market?
    Also around how much will it cost? My prediction is around $1500

    Also,
    Is the latest technology SSD able to overcome degradation of speed over time?
    I read somewhere that the latest SSD will not encounter such degradation of speed. It is true?

    this is big bla anyways. espencially the more storage you'll have. they will settle on a lower end speed, but in normal cases, it should not hurt at all.

    no clue how they work for longetivity, as they are new.. :)
