QUOTE(0168257061 @ Dec 23 2010, 10:41 AM) so the ssd eventually die after reaching its limit ? well.. intel gives 3 years warranty for its SSD, so technically it should be able to last at least 3 years to 5 yearsthen have to RMA ?   |

QUOTE(0168257061 @ Dec 22 2010, 09:17 PM) very low low ah? you can write 4GB a day everyday for 5 years. by the time the write cycles are used up you can get an SSD for a quarter of the price and twice the size already. |

Don't listen to myths  The current Intel SSD is not even in the market for 5 years so how on earth can someone come up with a baseless assumption as such? In 2005, there aren't any SSD's for sale in Malaysia at the first place.This post has been edited by clawhammer: Dec 24 2010, 04:53 AM |

RAID-0 SSD will give you awesome benchmark scores but in real life performance it isn't so substantial. The thing that makes the SSD fast is because of the low random access times so even if you RAID-0, the random access times remains more or less the same at +/- 0.1ms. The only advantage is the added read speed.
In short, you can feel more difference doing a 2 disks RAID-0 on Raptors than SSD's. |
