That'd speed up your system enough as is... How about just using it for your damn swap file?

But the minute that gets tripped over and all your power goes out, you're screwed. I was looking at the iRAM in 2003, and it worked out around 400GBPs for two in RAID. Y'know, before Samsung got done for price fixing RAM. Though to be fair, power could be supplied by the power cable.

So you couldn't use it as a boot device - it would just be a place to store that file you're video editing for quick transfer to onboard RAM.

DDR1 is hands-down more performance per buck, DDR2 cheaper. Yes it runs faster but ALSO takes twice as long to retrieve data, and I personally am a latency man, so that ticks me right off. Also, SSD drives are still 10x slower than this, they are still flash, with lots of cache, hehe.

Besides, why would you even think about high-performance storage without a backup battery? oh and thelotuseater, it’s battery-backed by a wee 9v battery that lasts for like a week if your AC fails.
