Title: SSHD Capacity?
Post by: Monster Dave on May 13, 2009, 10:05:51 AM
Anyone know what the largest capacity SSHD (Solid State Hard Drive) is available? I saw one recently in a laptop with 560gigs.

Thanks.

Probably not available commercially for a while though

Depends...1.6tb is the top for single drive storage but a company in England did a 48 drive RAID 0 array...was something like 12 TBs and they could open 50 programs simultaneously in the blink of an eye.

I can tell you though, they make one hell of a difference. I have a 2x30GB OCZ Vertex RAID0 running my OS and apps and as long as the stripe and alignment are the same, the speed is unbeatable. From the time I push power on my computer until my Windows login screen...7 seconds.
