WOW, Tiger Direct has 480 Sandisk Ultra II SSDs on sale for $130... damn!
Why shouldn't we use these in servers?
-
Go for it! Eight of those babies in RAID 5 would be pretty sweet.

Damnation! This would be significantly more space, at least cost for the backup storage solution I wanted to use my old HP DL380 G5 for.
-
Compare to 4TB WD Red in RAID 6 or RAID 10 for backup though, which is cheaper?

The DL380 G5 I have is 2.5" drives... those Reds won't fit.

No, the 1TB would though, at only $69 per drive. Going to RAID 6 you'd get 6TB at half the price. So it is performance versus capacity.

This is my fear - I'm going to buy (for myself) a server with 3.5" bays and then in a few years SSD will be so cheap I'll kick myself. Hopefully 3.5" SSD catch on (think of all that room for chips!)
edit: on 2nd thought, I bet cheap 3.5" to 2.5" adapters will be made

Scott found a solution for the 2.5" RED drives.

Every week I've been saying it's right around the corner, so... it's right around the corner.
In other news, Node.js seems to have launched v5... so now officially, Node.js burns through major revisions faster than we issue patch revisions. What a world we live in.

And it works well on infinite scroll. I just wish I could easily get to the bottom of the thread on my iPhone.

From the topic view, there used to be a link to go to the end of the thread back in 0.7.x
