Promises 65,000 IOPS and thus should be great for ZIL. It's pretty
reasonable priced (~230 EUR) and stacked with 4GB or 8GB DDR2-ECC should
be more than sufficient.

Wouldn't it be better investing these 300-350 EUR into 16 GByte or more of
system memory, and a cheap UPS?


That would depend on the read/write mix, I think?
