- editor's comments:- way back in 2000 ANACAPA advertised their Sun
compatible memoru upgrades in our publication called the
SPARC Product Directory.
In March 2011 - I looked at their site to see what (if
anything) they're doing today in the
SSD market.
They
do distribute products from several SSD makers - but their publicly viewable web
site is little more than a list of partners and suppliers.

SSD |
In 2016 there will be
just 3 types of
SSD in the datacenter.
One
of them doesn't exist yet - the bulk storage SSD.
It will start to
replace the last remaining strongholds of
hard drives in the
datacenter due to its unique combination of characteristics, huge storage
density, low running costs and operational advantages.
Bulk
storage SSDs will displace the last remaining hard drives in the enterprise
server market by 2020 - even if the price of a new hard disk drops to zero
and enterprise HDDs are given away free! |

The new business and
architectural models of the datacenter - how we get from here to there - and
the technical and problems which will need to be solved - are just some
of the ideas explored in this
visionary article. | | | |

| SSDs are among the most
expensive computer hardware products you will ever buy and comprehending the
factors which determine SSD costs is often a confusing and irritating
process... |
 |
...which is not made any
easier when market prices for apparently identical capacity SSDs can vary more
than 100x to 1!
Why is that? ...read the article to
