I am currently working in QA for a company that makes storage systems (NAS/SAN appliances), and had a chance to work with some of the FusionIO products. Holy guacamole, they are blazingly fast! They're pricey, though, since that kind of speed comes at a premium. I've also had the chance to work with a number of different SSDs, and have just purchased one to install into my studio machine. My experiences at work lead me to believe that the SSDs now available are reliable and fast enough for audio work. -- ====================================================================== Joe Hartley - UNIX/network Consultant - jh@xxxxxxxxxxxx Without deviation from the norm, "progress" is not possible. - FZappa _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
