Basically it's DRAM with a battery backup and a CF slot where the data
goes in case of poewr failure. It's a bit big and so on, but it should be
perfect for journals... Or is this the kind of device you were referring
to as "data center grade size"?
Some of te SSDs sold today have a capacitor for power failure as well, so
all writes will complete, but they're not so common.
