Micron Technology is an American company wthat makes various semiconductor devices - RAM, flash memory, etc. It's just announced that it reckons it will be able to build a blazing-fast Solid State Drive before the end of next year that'll be able to transfer data at rates of up to 1GB/s. Oh, and they're showing it off too, in the wonderfully smug video above.

Of course, that doesn't mean that this tech will be in your laptop next year. It'll take a little while longer than that, and initially only be available for servers, but if anything, it shows that the rapid pace of innovation continues in the world of flash storage.
