Solid State Drive (SSD) has been the killer application in NAND Flash market due to higher content per system consumption and more popular applications. According to DRAMeXchange, SSD market penetration rate in standard NB market will be estimated to be 1%~1.5% in 2009 and will be below 10% in low-cost-PC segments since HDD is still adopted as the mainstream storage devices.

Higher price has stumbled the extensive application and deeper market penetration for SSD.
