Load all of Microsoft Office in 0.5 seconds

http://i.gizmodo.com/5166798/24-soli...e-in-5-seconds

Pretty sick speeds! and 24x256gb SSD drives is just retarded...

However, the build is messy, the case is ugly, and the guy sounds like a tool.

I thought you weren't supposed to defrag SSDs.

Yeah, but what happens when 1 hard drive goes bad? PWN (assuming its in raid0)

does that guy have red hair?

he might as well get a submarine cable and hookup to the SEA-ME-WE 4, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SEA-ME-WE_4

wouldn't you love to have that job?

besides those thoughts that came to mind, cool!

Depends on whether you like doing pointless stuff.

I expect it won't do a thing, what with wear levelling-whatchamacallits controlling where the data goes.

NO NO NO, I was looking @ speeds 2 years from today :blink: Good thinking but very risky system (1 SSD damaged and everything is gone!)

For those paranoid about the data loss, you could run a RAID 0+1 configuration and use SATA drives for the backup image. By the time you have the money to slam down on an array like this the extra cost (if you don't already have the drives) would be minimal.

With RAID 1 aren't you limited to the speed of the slower drive?
For example, if you're writing 300mb/s constantly to your SSD drives how can you have the same data written on your mechanical hard disks? :huh: That buffer would run out fast.
