With advances like this taking place I can see SSD becoming much cheaper. No need for external chips just a connector and power source.The size of board using this is about 1 inch square making it very easy to use in a small area like a netbook.

The SanDisk iSSD drive delivers all the benefits of SSD: It is rugged and reliable, power efficient and small in size. In addition, being an SSD in a BGA form factor and tiny in size, enables the SanDisk iSSD drive to be embedded into a larger variety of new thinner and slicker devices, such as smartbooks, Ultra-thin PCs and media tablets, with surprising and new innovative designs.
Such thinner and lighter computing devices are also enabled due to SanDisk iSSD drive's embedded design which allows manufactures to avoid the additional weight and thickness required by a connector based SSD solution. Thinner storage solutions like the SanDisk iSSD drive also enable fan less designs and greater airflow contributing to a cooler device operation, an additional benefit for the user on the go.
Moreover, with a SATA interface, commonly found in PC devices, the SanDisk iSSD drive enables easy system integration with mobile PC devices as well as high productivity capabilities. Thus, allowing end users to reap the benefits of optimized PC performance and user experience even in the smallest computing devices and when they are away from home.
