I was recently surprised to learn that SSD prices are down in the $2-$3 per gbyte range. I did a survey of one brand (OCZ) at NexTag and it was:
256 gigs = $700 128 gigs = 300 64 gigs = 180 32 gigs = 70 Also, Micron is saying that they're going to get into the business of PCIe-attached flash, which will give us a second source for what Fusion-io is shipping today. If you're on the "I like a real system disk" side of the diskless/diskfull fence, these SSDs ought to be a lot more reliable than tradtional disks. And I'd like to get rid of the mirrored disks in our developer desktops... -- greg _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
