Intel X25-E SSD turned into SAN
Pillar talk
Wednesday, 11 March 2009, 16:10
CHIPZILLA'S X25-E SLC SSD is to be shoved under the bonnet of Pillar's SAN-in-a-closet Axiom system from June.
Axiom is an all-in-one SAN (storage area network) system with custom software and hardware, developed and flogged by Pillar which is connected to Oracle.
According to Ars Technica, the premium version of the system will be made out of SSD bricks which are made up of twelve Intel 64GB X25-E SSDs and a RAID controller.
Each brick will probably cost $10,000. Put us down for a cupboard full. µ
