• editor's comments:- in April 2008 - Nimbus announced an SSD accelerator option in its Breeze H-series 10GbE IP Storage. A system with 34TB of storage, and 64GB of mirrored SSD costs about $120,000.
  
  Nimbus carries on the torch of a network storage operating system - which under the name "Cloudbreak" - was first developed by Nimbus's founder at TrueSAN Networks .
  
  That's the kind of groundwork thinking you need to make an SSD accelerated storage system work economically as part of a hybrid HDD-SSD array - while avoiding high manual setup, tuning and configuration costs.
