Sony VAIO Z laptop to be upgraded with quad SSD, switchable graphics
The 13.3″ VAIO Z is Sony’s flagship portable machine. It looks damn stylish and provides nice specification, making it an ideal buy for students as well as business professionals. To make it more attractive the firm is planning to upgrade it with new features. So whats in store? For starters, Intel Core i7 processor, 6gig RAM, NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M, and 256GB quad SSD. Yes, all that and more in a 13.3inch form factor.
The most interesting of all new features is its quad SSD that operates as a RAID stripe, helping the drive load data at up to 6.2 times faster than a regular 5,400RPM notebook hard drive.
Another cool and useful feature is its switchable graphics that can toggle between high-powered GeForce GT 330M graphics and energy-efficient integrated graphics to preserve battery.
The new Sony VAIO Z cost $1,900.
The notebook will be available in the US by April, while Europeans can get it by end of March.
