Another drive feature is they usually (in the case of the Intel, others probably have too) have additional space reserved on top of the stated drive capacity to replace and sectors when they become unusable. You can then use SMART utilities to see how much of this reserved space has been used giving you a nice bit of warning if your drive is about to die, unlike you get on hard drives which usually go without any warning]]>Oct 20th 2008 8:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/Oct 20th 2008 12:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/
Either way, unlike a conventional harddrive which normally experiences catastrophic failure at the end of it's life (and the resulting data loss), even when all the cells of an SSD drive finally wear out, the whole drive just becomes read-only --- no data loss.]]>Oct 21st 2008 4:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/Oct 20th 2008 8:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/Oct 20th 2008 11:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/

Yeah that would be nice to see, but the people who have more money than brains will see these high numbers then lay down large numbers of bills to get some of these drives.

Besides I was always told life isn't fair.]]>Oct 20th 2008 9:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/
For $1200, it better be ludirous speed....]]>Oct 20th 2008 9:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/
But if we're talking about a Sever Scenario, then $1200 is nothing really.]]>Oct 20th 2008 9:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/Oct 20th 2008 10:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/Oct 20th 2008 11:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/Oct 20th 2008 1:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/Oct 20th 2008 12:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/]]>Oct 20th 2008 5:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/Oct 21st 2008 4:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/20/intel-ssds-raided-up-for-blinding-speed/Oct 21st 2008 1:42PM
