It is fracking impressive!!!

But they are still expensive at the moment and writing to these drives is a lot slower than reading from them. But I guess all that time installing everything pays off...

Correct me if i'm wrong?

That is pretty awesome. I can't wait for solid state drives, they are going to be so much more reliable

Someone calculate how much that rig cost...

 

[Thelis]

$9,000... maybe a little over that.

 

[rifle]

the ssd's alone must be insane

 

[freestyler105]

$9,000... maybe a little over that.

More than that...I think each SSD is about $1,000.

lol!

SSD = Solid State Drive and these are going to replace hard drives.

They have no moving parts inside and they use solid state memory instead of the silver platters you find inside hard drives to store data.
