I recently stumbled upon this product:
OCZ RevoDrive Hybrid PCI-Express, 1.0TB (RVDHY-FH-1T)
100GB Flash, MLC, 100GB cache, 5400 rpm, read: 910 MB/s, write: 810 MB/s • PCIe x4
On the price comparison website I use, it's listed at $440.
So what we're dealing with here is not a pure SSD, but the stats still claim it is capable of 800+MB/s speeds. So I'm wondering where's the catch? Because if there is none then this product clearly gives a bigger bang for buck than any SSD right now. Sure it's quite expensive, but we're only talking about a ~$50 difference compared to 512GB SSDs, and here you're getting twice the capacity.
So is this truly a special product that too many people have overlooked, or am I still missing something?
