The 13.3-inch VAIO-Z laptop is the Sony’s flagship machine, which will get an upgrade by the company to feature quad SSD and switchable graphics. A starter of the VAIO-Z will get you with good specs including an Intel Core i7 processor, 6GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M graphics and 256GB quad SSD, packed in a 13.3-inch form factor.
The quad-SSD on the VAIO-Z allows you to use them in a single RAID stripe, which boosts the drive data load at up to 6.2 times faster than a regular 5,400rpm notebook HDD. Another interesting feature is the switchable graphics, which allows you to have options to choose from the powerful NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M graphics or the energy-efficient integrated to save battery.
So, when you’re into gaming or watching HD videos, you’ll need to choose the NVIDIA, and when you’re down to doing simple tasks such as word processing, you can toggle to the integrated graphics to preserve the battery.
One of these upgraded Sony VAIO-Z laptops will run you about $1,900, will be available in the US in April and Europe will get it earlier by end of March.
