The SSD Review had the opportunity to meet with Robert Pearce, Sr Technical Marketing Specialist of Corsair, this week at Computex Taipei and he had some rather unexpected SSD news to pass on. It appears that Corsair will be releasing an enthusiast line of SSDs known as the Force 3 GT line right on the heals of their new ‘Sandforce …

Brace yourself for this SSD release because we cannot simply give you the meat without the gravy on this one.  While at CES, we were lucky enough to spend time with Kingston behind the scenes and at their “WOW” event for release of their new product line to include the HyperX SSD.
