'datawulf' nodes better than 1 at the same speed (with them added up)
for data access? surely the optimal speed is a processor that can
handle the intensive IO streaming and a kernel + a bit of overhead for
good luck.

also - this uses intellipower, intellipark and intelliseek, which are
basic things... i doubt these will be of any use in data centers where
drives are under constant strain. in an archive systems these, with good
power managment and resorce managment, are good things.

it's quite conceivable that this would solve problems... but you still
have to get from LV AC to ELV DC which will still be inefficient,

you say that, but don't
PS2 and PS3 make ideal compute nodes for some applications like
rendering and 3D and 4D (time as the 4th) ?
a PS3 cluster is already out there somewhere...
especially if you take cost into account, a retail PS3 has the
processing power (if you can access it) of

of having many copies of the data. often having 4 copies on different
nodes. and as you say run the query to many of them. if one fails there
are still 3, if another there are still 2. i've also read somewhere else

to boot stay off limits to the OS and programs or can it be used for
other purposes once booting is done?

in this for a 100Mbps hub you would get 10.24 seconds per node.
so assuming that you dont have any more than one node failing every 11
seconds.. a 100Mbps hub would do adequately.
