Quote:Geeks at Samsung took 24 256GB SSD (Solid State Drives) and hooked them together into a monster RAID array. The results are very impressive indeed.

The setup could hit transfer speeds of over 2GBps. In real world terms this translates into:

    * Being able to open ALL Microsoft Office apps in 0.5 seconds
    * Open 53 programs installed on the system in 18 seconds
    * Defrag the entire system in 3 seconds (that said, SSDs and SSD RAID arrays don’t need defragging)
    * Transfer a 700MB ripped DVD in 0.8 seconds

Pretty impressive stuff!

Take a look at the video below for all the action.

24SSDs... Way overkill?

For the the slow intensive tasks, where speed does matter, it'll be mostly a CPU (or GPU) bottleneck anyway, so your HDD probably doesn't matter that much. For tasks like described in the vid, such as opening programs, you really don't need that much speed, because they're fast even with lets say 1 SSD. (I mean like opening MS word in 0.5 secs or 0.05 secs... does it really matter that much to you?)

well i think they did this because when the first batch of ssd came out someone raided them and got HORRIBLE transfer speeds, continuous file corruption, and basically said SSD were spoon.  

So samsung strikes back with this :)

mr right please send me 12 pcs, that's enough for me

I liked the computer setup.
Lol, they needed two PSUs to power that thing.

If you was to install win on 1 SSD and store everything non-active on your other hardrive,. ...
