Ah, ;), that's more easily found, about $230-$250 it seems, cool. > > the 313 has a supercapacitor to flush the write cache on unexpected > > power failure. > > They don't unfortunately. Bummer :(, it would be nice to get one that does. I think the 320 series does, the 40G is only $90, but I think it has relatively crappy write performance and high write latency, so wouldn't be a very good zil. The 313 looks like it has pretty good performance, and not too pricy at $135 for 24G, which is plenty big for a zil. The box is going to have dual power supplies on UPS's, and I plan to set it up for auto shutdown on power loss, so it's not *too* likely the slog is going to unexpectedly lose power while processing writes. I guess when you're on a budget you can't have everything <sigh>, I might need to settle for a non-powerfail protected ssd for zil...
