These are SSD's and not your fragile HDD's. This thing is gonna rock! Did you hear about the new startup company who claims they can make regular nand flash drives get up to speed by a new controller?<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Elijah]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 27th 2008 3:35PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on A-DATA demos 128GB SATA RAID SSD]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/08/a-data-demoes-128gb-sata-raid-ssd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/08/a-data-demoes-128gb-sata-raid-ssd/</guid><description><![CDATA[so it has it's own RAID controller built-in?  If so then this would be faster than a non-RAID 128gb SSD, would it not?

It is the single biggest upgrade that I have ever made to a pc which boosts performance.

I'm going to assume that they took 2 or more smaller SSD's and are using RAID to create 1 drive, since they claim that they are increasing performance and capacity by using the RAID (sounds like RAID 0).  Of course, unless they have redundancy (mirroring) in their RAID configuration (they don't if it's RAID 0), they are also increasing the chances of data loss. <br><br>So really, IMHO I think RAID is more of a buzz word here.  They don't even say what type of RAID!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Randall]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 8th 2008 12:59PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on A-DATA demos 128GB SATA RAID SSD]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/08/a-data-demoes-128gb-sata-raid-ssd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/08/a-data-demoes-128gb-sata-raid-ssd/</guid><description><![CDATA[Anyone see the article about the team that put 9 SSD's in Raid configuration? Massive speed. Raid SSD makes a huge jump in performance. If I were to get a laptop with SSD, this would be the drive (as it doesn't take 2 2.5 inch slots for the RAID. And since its SSD, not a big jump in power consumption.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[dean]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 8th 2008 7:31PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on A-DATA demos 128GB SATA RAID SSD]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/08/a-data-demoes-128gb-sata-raid-ssd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/08/a-data-demoes-128gb-sata-raid-ssd/</guid><description><![CDATA[Well, it doesn't have anything different than a 128 GB drive than, except it internally includes two 64 GB drives. It should double the performance, but it also doubles the risk of losing data (as I know the data is "shared" simultaneously to two drives so if one fails the data is lost as no one can create the entire data from one lost one avaiable one lost one available... patterned part of the file).<br><br>Ok I tried to explain as much as I could :)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Can]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 15th 2008 5:42PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on A-DATA demos 128GB SATA RAID SSD]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/08/a-data-demoes-128gb-sata-raid-ssd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/08/a-data-demoes-128gb-sata-raid-ssd/</guid><description><![CDATA[Yeah, having a RAID 0 config doubles your chance of data loss, but if this was a single drive and one of the drives (i.e. the only drive) went out, your data would be toast.  I think the deal with this is that you get enhanced performance and, given the MTBF for SSD, little additional risk.<br><br>I think this is the way of the future, smaller SSD coupled with RAID (imagine four 64GB in a RAID 5 config the size of a standard 3.5" drive)...Brilliant!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rob]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 14th 2008 4:10PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
