Solidata recently started offering new P2 2.5-inch solid-state drives that come with an IDE interface. These drives are perfect for owners of older machines that do not support SATA ports, or just people that prefer the old 80-pin IDE cables over the new SATA ones. The firm is currently offering 32 GB and 64 GB versions of the IDE SSDs. The P2 drives use MLC SSD with a maximum read speed of 90 MB/sec, and maximum write speed of 70 MB/sec. The power consumption of these drives is 0.24 W at standby while the peak consumption is 0.5 W. Dimensions are standard at 100 x 70 x 9.5 mm (width x depth x height) and the drives weight exactly 75 g. |

IDE was never saturated. They switched to SATA so they could steal more of the SCSI bus spec. SCSI had become as cheap and popular as IDE. IDE barely works on 2.5 inch form factor though because the cable is too large.

You have no idea how many machines out there still use IDE interface. Obviously they wouldn't make a SSD for IDE if there wasn't a market or demand for it. On top of that, many mobos now still come with a single IDE port.

You'll be surprised how many businesses still keep ancient hardware and software. My tech relative still maintains a NT 4.0 network and all the associate software, because it would cost the business owner over 50k to upgrade it.
So for those businesses it may be just what they need.
