I'm wondering if this card would be supported under OpenSolaris
http://www.intel.com/design/flash/nand/turbomemory/index.htm

It's also a $40 mini pci express card, which I'm not sure if it would fit in a pci express slot on the x2100

I've found the 2100's to be very poor systems to run ZFS on top of.
For all of UFS's flaws, at least you could have a reasonably
performing 1U application server.
ZFS is great, but you really need a pair of flash drives for the ARC
and ZIL. On the 2100, that simply isn't a cost effective solution.

I'd like the Opensolaris installer to be able to support UFS again, but oh well.
