FASTEST SSD ON PLANET EARTH

orion456 · 09-25-08, 02:13 PM

The future is now:

"Fusion-IO IODrive: FASTEST SSD ON PLANET EARTH PCI-E X4 card 80 or 160GB SILICON POWER 800MB/S read 680MB/S write 100,000 random IOPS!"

http://www.dvnation.com/images/Atto-IO-Drive-80GB.PNG

I wonder what it does in a RAID setup?

They were supposed to send test samples to someone that was doing a roundup of all SSD's, (dom i think?) but they never got around to it and we all just assumed they were full of it. =o

It appears to actually be available now. $2650 for 80GB, I'd rather throw a half dozen mtrons on a good RAID card for that price

~~Well, look at the actual hardware. That isn't a flash drive, it's RAM on a PCI-E board. 80GB/160GB of RAM is pretty expensive.~~ Never mind, I've been corrected.

Nah, it's SLC flash.

The fact that they can make an SSD that fast already...GG regular hard drives?

When you have a multi-million dollar data center, I think those are worth it

i wonder why they put it in a pci-e 4x slot only? I would think that would bottleneck it.

You would need to think again - single PCIe x4 (not 4x) slot is good for 1GB/s
