16GB around 1500$ --- ( applestore price is 4400$ )
Yeah, those are the ones I was thinking of. Good to see the sandisk ones are coming down in price. I could see doing maybe a couple of these in Esata enclosures, so all you need to do is drop a controller card into a rental machine.
I think it would be curious to see what one of these in a fw800 enclosure would do performance wise. I'm sure it wouldnt do as good as an SATA connection, but it would be interesting to see nontheless.
600$ list is a bit better than 72000$...
you could just put them into a mac pro. you need a cable to go from the internal connectors to the drive - such things did not seem to be difficult to get last time i checked.
they claim the access time is 0.11ms.
nothing is ever certain. i havent read any real world reports yet.
While I know you could just install internally in the mac, for those of us who have to work with rental servers more often than not, if thes drives could work well in an external enclosure, it could be really useful.
Other world computing has some 2.5 and 3.5 enclosures, what is nice is that they also include eSATA connections on them, so if you did have a controller card in th emac, you could use them via SATA, but if not, then via firewire or USB.
