Anyone using Flash Disks?

[Doug Marshall]

I\'m curious if anyone has thought of or is using a flash disk instead of a standard hard disk. I found, for example, at www.m-sys.com, (\"http://www.m-sys.com,\") a line of flash disks that are intended as transparent replacements for hard disks. I have no idea as to cost but the .1 ms or better access time caught my attention...

Anyone have knowledge of these devices?

They sound great Doug - any idea on pricing?

It looks like they go up to about 10gb - right?

I just got a price for the flash disks: $6509.80 for about 2 gigs. I think I\'ll just run right out and buy a dozen! - Doug

So I could probably get 10gb of Flash storage for under $30,000!

Bargain!
