In my yesterday post "Realistic Next MacBook Air", I explained briefly about a new 1.8" drive that will come available Q1 of this year. The company Micron Technologies announced on December 2009 the following.
Our RealSSD™ C300 drives are designed to bring performance and portability to laptops and other computing applications. Because they take advantage of the SATA 6 Gb/s interface—with backward compatibility to SATA 3 Gb/s—they deliver blistering read and write speeds, helping improve boot and application load times. But even on SATA 3 Gb/s systems, the C300 drives still outperform other SSDs on the market and leave traditional hard drives in the dust. In fact, based on PCMark® Vantage scores, our C300 drives are nearly 14 times faster than standard hard drives, and they weigh less, consume less power, and are more durable.
And as a leader in NAND design and development, we’re the best-equipped to optimize NAND components for SSDs. Using leading 34nm NAND technology and a high-speed ONFI 2.1 interface, we provide the foundation for high performance and help you get the most out of your machine.
The following Link below shows that these new drives DWARF anything in use today.

Enjoy the video. Also this makes runcore drives look like 4,200 rpm. I also recommend NOT buying Runcore anymore with this information at hand. (Not trying to make waves either)
