Intel turbo Memory
[edit]I've redirected Intel Turbo Memory to this page, but I think the page should be moved to there, and Robson flash memory should redirect to it. Hinges 09:53, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
Yes, Robson was the code name, Intel Turbo Memory is what it is actually called now. Also, the tidbit at the end about 100,000 cycles is extremely dated; flash memory often has MTBF ratings that put traditional hard drives to shame, and this is especially the case in flash memory that is used in Turbo Memory, since it's held to higher standards.
Let me correct myself, the 100,000 cycles is extremely misleading, though technically correct.
Current SSD products being released can ensure at least 100,000 write/erase cycles per sector which equates to a 1,000,000 hour MTBF rating. This means an average user can expect to use the drive for about 10 years under normal usage conditions or around five years in a 100% power-on state with an active/idle duty cycle at 90%.

So... where does the name "Robson" come from? 68.39.174.238 04:31, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
Please look at Robson Lake in Vancouver BC for details. Dkalowsky (talk) 17:53, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
Ad?
[edit]This page currently reads like an advertisement, including claims like "this technology will make notebooks much faster and more power efficient in the future." The sources used here are either directly manufactured by Intel, or are of a speculative nature from before the product launched. (The statement here was based on the Intel demo.) I added an {{advert}} tag to this article for now. Also notice the (talk page of) the related article Hybrid drive, which is also of disputed neutrality. – Chip Zero 16:22, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
iPod Mini vs Nano
[edit]Why is the sentence "Apple has already phased out the iPod mini, which had a 1 inch hard drive, in favor for the iPod nano, which has 2, 4 or 8 gigabyte flash memory drives." included in this. It doesn't seem to make sense to have this here. Possibly it could be expanded to imply that Apple might be switching to flash memory in many applications, but even that is speculation. Unless someone finds a good reason to keep that sentence in here or expand it into something more appropriate, I am going to delete it in a few hours. Mythmon 23:57, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
A simple cache?
[edit]Isn't that technology a simple hardware cache? Of course it seems to differentiate application code from data, but still... 207.134.187.165 (talk) 19:20, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
Versions
[edit]I'm not sure that a Turbo Memory 2.0 was ever released. 7/18/2008 version 1.7 was released to the public. Before that was version 1.6.0. Just recently 1.9.0 was released. So where did the 2.0 version come from? Dkalowsky (talk) 17:53, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
