It's no secret that SSDs suffer from performance penalties when it comes to small random writes. Even though more modern SSD try to solve some of these issues hardware-wise, software can also play a major role. Instead of resorting to things like delaying all writes until shutdown and storing them in RAM, SanDisk claims it has a better option. At WinHEC yesterday, the company introduced its Extreme FFS, which it claims will improve write performance on SSDs by a factor of 100.

who is to say you would have to instal something everywhere you go. its perfectly plausible that MS could release something via automatic update and BAM, supported. its just that simple. the fact is no truely new technology (that is technology that differs enough from current standards) is going to work on systems that were developed before it was. the OEM's and OS developers have to issue patches or have the driver downloadable or inclueded with the new storage media.
