Dell jams a terabyte of SATA3 SSD storage into Precision M6600 laptop

Dell is tweaking some of the options offered on its Precision M6600 and M4600 mobile workstations. You can now choose to add 512GB SATA3 SSD drives and (in the case of the M6600) a 4GB NVIDIA Quadro 5010M card. The interesting thing though, is that the 6600 has space for three drives: two full size and one mini-card slot. That means you could outfit this 17.3-inch beast with a pair of 512GB SSDs and one 128GB SSD, for a grand total of 1.1TB of solid state storage. Of course, with each half-terabyte drive adding a whopping $1,120 to the price of this professional lappy it’s not exactly for those on a budget. But, we wouldn’t be shocked to see this trickle down to high-end, portable gaming rigs (we’re looking at you Alienware) relatively soon.
