    Maybe we'll eventually see PCs and notebooks with built-in high-speed, low-capacity SSDs from which to boot (I'd love to see Win7 cold-boot in 6 seconds or whatever), with mechanical hard drives to hold our ever-increasing store of movies and porn.

    Until solid-state can compete on price with spinning discs, that seems like a good compromise. At some point, I'm going to update my HTPC that way, so it boots fast from a 60 GB or 80 GB SSD, but has a couple of 2 TB drives for all my... um... legally acquired media. *cough* #fusionioioxtreme

    @Kirkaiya: I had a friend ask me about this for his computer. It sounds like a really good idea to do, and I might just do it for my own computer after I acquire the funds.

    Hell, I wish my laptop had an SSD to boot from... #fusionioioxtreme

    @STiger: Maybe notebook manufacturers (do you read comments, Lenovo???) will start doing that for high-end models. I know I'd be willing to pay more for an onboard fast mini-SSD to boot my next ThinkPad from, with a standard 2.5" drive-bay for either a second, larger-capacity (but slower & cheaper) SSD or a fat 320GB spinning drive. Maybe someone (consumers to Lenovo, come in Lenovo...) will build it. Here's hoping! #fusionioioxtreme

    lol

    for 800$ go buy your self 6 1Tb HDD's, put them in RAID 0. and you will have 6TRB of storage and acces and write speed aroung 600-800 MB/s.

    Big waste of money

    @OMG! MoN!: The seek time of drives does not decrease as you add more drives, if anything it increases because you need to use a controller to figure out which drive the data is actually on.

    Nice...MB with a capital B even. Clearly out of my range, but it's always good to see stuff like this coming out.


    I love technology. Certainly not as much as Zoltan or Le Trung though.

    Well, I just tried it, and no matter how quickly I write I can not pen out 368 "MB"'s in a second, so I am forced to conclude that your "really, really damn fast" quote appears to be accurate. Now I must go find a bottle of scotch and try to get the flashbacks of upgrading to a 2400 baud modem and finding technology really could put characters on the screen faster than I could type them.
