awesome. good little write-up. looking forward to the software follow-up. btw - about SATAs - you've seen this, right? http://hardware.slashdot.org/story/13/03/01/224257/how-power-failures-corrupt-flash-ssd-data at work we had SEVERE problems with OCZ's 32gbyte SSDs. like... a 30% failure rate. 30%!!! strangely, the first batch OCZ drives - no problems. and those drives which _stay_ working, stay working. also, if you truly don't need even 32gbyte (or 64gbyte which is becoming the standard now), and you have a *reliable* power source, then consider these: 8Gbyte Innodisk SATA DOM: http://linitx.com/product/13506 it's not stunning peformance but if you don't need stunning performance, and 8gbyte is ample, why pay even £60+ for something you're never going to use? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
