Angelbird

Editor's comments:- November 2010 - Angelbird is a small UK based company which says it's developing a low entry cost, capacity-expandable high performance PCIe SSD - which it calls Wings.

Industry reports - and the company's own web site - talk about an imminent launch date.

Although the company has generated some pre-launch hype on various consumer SSD forums - it took over 30 days to respond to online queries I made using its web contact form. I would have phoned - but no phone number was listed.

Nice graphic images on its site, however. See also:- animal brands in the SSD market

Here's the email I got from Davide Rutigliano, Founder, Angelbird (November 25, 2010) which says more about the products.

"Sorry for the late reply, we have been overwhelmed with requests.

Each one of our drives can process well over 50,000 IOPS. A RAID made with four of such drives ought to produce very satisfactory results, although as you can understand, results will vary depending on the drives used on the board. We can only account for our own drives, designed especially for our Wings.

We will have enough time to discuss everything in further detail once we are ready to ship, which should be very, very soon."
