While
Lexar does a fine job competing in the flash memory arena, it appears that the outfit is giving it a go in the
solid state disc realm as well. According a marginally descriptive product page, Lexar is offering up an 8GB
ExpressCard SSD, which should go nicely above that
120GB PCMCIA NAND drive as you attempt to cram more storage into peripheral slots than inside your laptop's casing. Moreover, the device features a peak data transfer rate of 250Mbps, and while it doesn't appear to be available for shipment just yet, it'll run you a penny under $200 when it formally launches.
