SilverStone HDDBOOST HDD Accessory
Seems like a pretty neat idea, anyone tried one? It seems to use the SSD as a giant cache for the HDD.

Seems like an decent idea, but not a well implemented one. It only mirrors the first chunk of the drive, so you have to make sure the data on the beginning of the disc is the most accessed data you use. You might as well just use the SSD by itself...
Oh well, never mind.
