Ylläpidon lisäys:

Useat ulkomaiset sivustot uutisoivat muistivalmistaja Micronin tiedottaneen, että sen omistukseen kuuluvan Crucial-muistibrändin Ballistix-mallisto lopetetaan. Tarkempaa syytä lopettamiselle ei kerrottu, eikä myöskään vahvistettu, etteikö yritys voisi tuoda markkinoille muisteja toisella brändillä.

Earlier today we received a press release from Micron, stating that its long running Crucial Ballistix sub brand was to be retired.

Aika näyttää tuleeko tilalle jotain muuta?

Aika suositusta brandistä kyse. Itselläkin käytössä noita kampoja ollut ja on monessa koneessa.

Vanhoja tuotebrändejä on syytä silloin tällöin päivittää ja jopa uusia kokonaan. Ei tuo pinnan alla todennäköisesti tarkoita yhtään mitään muuta (jos eivät sitten kavenna tätä niche-linjaa kokonaan ja keskity palvelinmuisteihin ja alemman tason kuluttajakalikoihin).
