On the next few pages we'll show you some photos. The images were taken at high-resolution and then cropped and scaled down. The camera used was a Canon 450D 12 MegaPixel.

The Vertex 2 we are testing today is an 2.5" SATA II 100 GB version. You should easily be able to place it somewhere in your chassis. The product is a prototype with non-final performance numbers.

And though the photo would make you think otherwise, of course, it's a perfect fit for laptops. This SSD would bring a whole lot of performance onto that laptop alright, all at low power consumption at 2 Watt and virtually no heat.

Slim and light-weight, 9.5mm tall, it's the standard for notebook drives. When we look at the connectors, we spot the standard power and SATA connector, this drive is SATA2 compatible.  We hope to see SATA3 support on SSDs soon.

Installation wise it's the same as a traditional HDD. Pop it in, connect it, bind it, format it and you are good to go at horribly fast speeds. It uses the same connectors as any other SATA storage device.
