Colorful previously announced the unit later this year, but now it is launching a new exclusive limited edition model, the Colorful SL500 640G Limited Summer Edition for the summer season (in the Northern Hemisphere).
SL500 Limited Summer Edition offers 640GB
Featuring a brilliant Glacier Blue color, this limited edition joins the Spring LE already launched in March. The limited edition is a special way to offer users different visual experiences of their products in a beautiful light blue colour.
Based on Colorful’s successful SL500 series, this special release is a high-performance, high-capacity model for advanced users and gamers who need unusual transfer speeds, but also good storage space.
The SSD is using an SMI 2258XT controller in conjunction with a 32-layer Intel 3D NAND TLC flash memory. The unit has a read speed of 500 MB/sec and a write speed of 450 MB/sec. The Colorful SL500 640G offers a great balance of performance and capacity at an excellent’ price (depending on the manufacturer), perfect for gaming systems and workstations that want a large but fast storage solution for their games and applications.
SL500 640G Limited Summer Edition is now available in Korea, Japan and Vietnam along with some other regions of Southeast Asia. As a special promotion, customers who purchase this SSD can receive a free 32 GB USB key.
With a capacity of 640GB, the SL500 640G Limited Summer Edition has a retail price of $129.
