What’s new? SSD trends, Intel i-8000 & Windows IoT branding

SSD trends at Computex: TLC and M.2

PCIe instead of SATA - this trend was clearly evident at this year's Computex in Taipei. As manufacturers are not making any progress with SATA SSDs in terms of speed, the future lies with much faster PCIe SSDs such as M.2. It has also been shown that TLC memory with 3 bits per cell is now increasingly being used in cheaper SSDs.

More options for vehicle computing: New accessories for MOVE series

spo-comm is now offering even more accessories for the two current vehicle PCs spo-book MOVE QM87 and spo-book MOVE N3160. New additions to the range include a GPS module for navigation and localization as well as a CAN bus for special vehicle applications.

Turbo clock at 15 watts TDP: Intel i-8000

Another new product presented at Computex is a quad-core processor from the Intel Core i-8000 generation. The special thing about it: With a TDP (Thermal Design Power) of just 15 watts, turbo clock rates of up to 4 GHz are to be achieved. The i7 CPU is set to be released in fall 2017 and will deliver up to 30 percent more speed than the comparable Core i7-7500U processor of the current Kaby Lake generation.
