There's a variety of reasons why you might want to buy a solid state hard drive, and this one pretty much meets them all.
It's tough (1500 Gs shock rating; an airplane's "black box" is rated at 3400 Gs). It supports RAID operations. It uses less power than a conventional hard drive, so it also generates less heat. It's SILENT. It uses the 2.5 inch form factor and SATA II, so installation is just like any other hard drive. It's reliable: one and a half million hours mean time between failures (MTBF). Put your information on this 128 GB drive and it will probably out live you.
Only you know what you actually need, but for laptops or other rugged environments, this one is hard to beat. So look into it and let us know what you decide.
