OCZ launches new version of PCIe SSD, RevoDrive X2

can we out partition C on DDR3? how fast would be that?

That is a good idea for the future. I mean even the sata has it's limits and maybe in the future we will plug our storage drives in the pci slot.

P.S.
It is nice to see a lot of articles and press releases that confirm the coming of faster and better drives but what I would like to see is a press release about the mass adoption of a blu ray writer.

If you mean by RAM it wouldn't be possible because it is volatile memory. As soon as the power is turned off you would lose the entire 'drive'. But otherwise you're right about speed.

Other than that It is nice to see technology being used 'outside the box'.

These prices are insane but so are the insane amount of data they can transfer i would love to have one of these bad boys in my rig

we might as well go for 40gb ram with that kind of money.

wow i had no idea sata was even a bottle neck, man i cant even keep up with how fast they're putting this stuff out

So we've moved drives from the SATA ports to PCI-E. Great. I know it's a stretch but can't someone figure out how to use volatile memory for storage? RAM slots are already there.
