Never was, despite the naive' who assert otherwise. The value of SSD

Hi Joe,
the general rule on Solaris SPARC is:
- if you need to address a big size of memory (over 4G): compile in 64bit
- otherwise: compile in 32bit ;-)
It's true that 32bit code will run faster comparing to 64bit ont the
64bit SPARC - you'll operate with 2 times shorter addresses, and in
As others said, RAID6 is RAID5 + a hot spare.
No. RAID6 is NOT RAID5 plus a hot spare.
The original phrase was that RAID 6 was like RAID 5 with a hot spare
ALREADY BUILT IN.
Built-in, or not - it is neither. It is more than that, actually. RAID
6 is like RAID 5 in that it uses parity for

Agreed. There is a HUGE gap between ooh ssd's are fast, look! and
engineering a solution that uses them properly with all their
strengths and faults. And as 'gnuoytr' points out, there is a big
difference between an Intel SSD and say, this thing:
