This SSD videos page
is the smallest collection of links you'll see on a directory page here on
StorageSearch.com.
I
avoid infomercials for the same reason I
avoid pdfs. They
waste my time. Typically a 10 minute video contains no more new data than I
can assimilate by looking at a static web page or email for about 10 seconds.
This page lists a handful of
SSD related videos that
(for various reasons) I did not ignore. |

any Oscars but might rate mentions in the

This demo shows how one single
PCIe SSD card made by
Fusion-io
can serve 1,024 simultaneous full resolution digital video streams from a

and broadcast customers. So I'm very impressed - not by the content
of videos on the web - but by the fact that the underlying technology is now
so affordable. | |

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