I like the ones that want you to install software so you can "hack money from the internet"

Like seriously... This isn't Command and Conquer: Generals, spambot.

Such cute replies. Somehow I'm sitting here feeling like the kid who got laughed at for setting down his Nintendo 64 controller and complaining about how long it is going to be until games are fun and have decent graphics.

That reply made me feel that way. :p

But being serious, I was looking for clarity and support for your assertions...

Yeah, I just couldn't really understand you to be honest. I meant no offense... unless of course you actually were a spambot. Then I wanted you to burn in hell. But you clearly aren't, so we're chill. :)

I was just saying we take for granted the technical side that makes things work so well and so safely when we complain the next new thing isn't dancing into our lives. I see this as a great time to drop three bills on an old system with a spare x4 slot instead of building a new system. Just like the console racket it never seems like anybody really makes good use of a platform at first blush. I'd have no idea what to do with a 10TB NVMe SSD it would be so fast and almost certainly unstable at this early stage. A well designed 1gb is grin inducing.

Didn't mean to be disruptive as I engaged in some navel gazing.

So, why do you think a 10TB NVME drive would be unstable? I would imagine the big problem in with such drives would be the extremely prohibitive costs for such a monstrosity and not stability.

Its double+ the speed of HDDs...with its IOPS exponentially more. That article showed it was tuned that way.. I bet it could be faster but like consumer level drives, the writes will slow after a while.

You can get 1.2 TB 2000+ MB/s NVMe drives now. Performance scales fairly linearly with capacity so...

I don't think there are any controllers capable of handling ~10 GB/s. If there are, they're in server space.

I got to see the Revo at CES when we met with OCZ... I can't wait to review it... :)
