Our sister site Uberpulse had some cozy time with Seagate’s CEO Bill Watkins. During the evening Mr. Watkins showed this SSD drive prototype. I’m sure that he would have liked to brag about the drive specifications, but he managed to refrain himself from doing so. Mr Watkins did say that Seagate was probably going to partner with one or more major flash manufacturer (SanDisk , Toshiba or Micron).

When asked about the future of “pure” flash-drives, Bill Watkins believes that the best compromise is to have a hybrid (disk+flash) that provides the best of both worlds (speed, power and capacity). Juicy details on Uberpulse
