Gigabyte's i-RAM: Affordable Solid State Storage

[Anusha]

Gigabyte i-RAM is infact a hard drive with RAM chips. Because of that, it is,
1. insanely fast
2. insanely expensive (for us, at least)
3. only can hold data for about 8 hours (with battery backup).

This is for no soft hearted computer guys. This is for people who would pay anything to get that blistering performance.

Yeah!!! But the volatility of data is a big concern if someone has enough money to spend.

You wanna buy it? For what?

[Anusha]

Rs.16000 is just the base system with no RAM!!! You have to buy RAM separately. :sorry:

If you are willing to pay that kind of money!! There are lot of alternatives for you at a much cheaper rate!!

But none of them will give that sort of a performance. Still, I don't want to risk my data like this.
