    Sorry if somone's already said this, but...
    I was thinking that this little thing would be a blessing when it came to Virtual Memory... which got me thinking.

    Can anyone else see the dissapearence of RAM with continued advancement of this SSD? Or the integration of the two?

    Maybe eventually...

    RAM speeds are 1-2 orders of Magnitude higher in bandwidth and in access times it isn't even close. Too much latency until these gaps are closed IMO.

    Makes me think of RAID level 0 on my 1720

    Might actually be able to double the bandwidth!

    Hmmm...
    --= Dell Inspiron 1720 || C2D 2.4GHz || 2 x 4GB G.Skill DDR2 || nVIDIA 8600GT 256MB =--
    --= 2 x 320GB HDD || 2.0MP WebCam || 8x DL DVD-RW || Ubuntu 10.10 =--
