news 28 Posted June 1, 2009 If you listen to our Wednesday fun on Leo Laporte's TWIT network or to our weekly podcast, you might have caught some initial tidbits about a new SSD controller in the works over at JMicron. I did a bit more digging to bring you a scoop worthy of sufficient detail. URL: http://www.pcper.com/comments.php?nid=7239 Quote: "JMicron will likely release a lower end JMF611 controller in tandem with the 612, which will share all of the above features but will be limited to 4 flash channels (and therefore half the throughput). JMicron's roadmap also includes SATA 3.0 and USB 3.0 support in products to be released in the first half of 2010. Given that Indilinx can nearly saturate SATA 2.0 with only 4 channels on their ARM controller, the JMF612 should be a vast improvement over the previous generation 601 and 602 / 602b controllers."
