Oh, wow. Well... exchange rate I guess. LOL
uh.. no - wouldn't the exchange rate make the Canadian price more like $1200? because their money is worth less than US?
-
Is the Canadian location pricing in CDN or USD?

Of course I would assume CDN - but even if it was in USD, why would it be 50% more expensive in the US vs Canada? I would expect the opposite - as you said, Canadian taxes should drive the price way higher, even before considering it being in a lower valued currency.
-
A lot of Canadian things price in USD. Just like in Nicaragua, you never know when the price is going to be USD.

I guess the real test is if I can order from the site and have it shipped to me in California.

let us know.

Hmm. I don't know if this will even work with my R720XD, after all. I have NL-SAS 7200RPM drives in the front (with a Perc 710) and if that SSD drive is a SATA, then it wouldn't work, right? Unless the cachecade are SATA connectors... Anyone know?
-
CacheCade isn't a controller, it's a feature of the controller that you are already using
-
Right but since the controller I am using is for NL-SAS, would it allow SATA connections on the** rear designated **cachecade slots or would those be the same as the front?

SAS controllers will work with SATA drives. The drives should work on that count.
-
Tried ordering and it only lists provinces in shipping/billing addresses.
I wonder if I can chat to see if I can get the price from the US site... -

All major controllers have been mix and match for a long time. Not within a single ARRAY, but on a single controller. I know of none with a limitation there.
