Adtron's 3.5-inch Flash HD for under 2 grand
The golden age is upon us:
Flash HDs on the cheap (um, relatively speaking). Adtron is busting out a 8GB 3.5-inch SATA drive that should hum along nicely in you tricked out desktop system, serving up the goods at 80MB a second while keeping quiet and staying cool. Of course, there's not really much you can fit inside 8GB anymore, but whatever you do cram in there is going to move around all lickity split-like.
They're targeting this at military and industrial applications, and the $1900 price point is for quantity purchases,
but we're sure once we manage the grub with a bake sale or three, we'll find plenty of uses.
