Yea, its an Ebay link, but looks legit to me.
No DDR2, probs not S-ATA2, but its more convenient to use now.
Onwards and upwards..

if this was DDR2+SATA2 and priced around $50 i'd actually buy and use one.
insteed it's DDR1 and SATA @ $150...
no wonder they don't sell.
![Send a message via AIM to [XC] gomeler](images/misc/im_aim.gif)
what happened to something like DDR2 + PCI or PCIe? Imagine the bandwidth.. would be nuts.
this was posted a while back
still not good enough
1
4 gig.
I-ram was always niche at best.
There's supposed to be a MKII DDR2 version at some point.
im sure its not genuine... why would gigabyte sell this thing now, years after the initial iram was launched?
is it that hard ?
just give US DDR2 support and Sata2 support!

I know its been discussed before, but this is it now available for purchase.
Iv not seen those pics of the new unit before, and the sellers feedback is massive- too high to be a con IMHO... if they had 0 feedback, yea, id be suspicious!
The I-RAM is still one of the best performing RAMDisks out, especially given the price. Performs much better than the 1st gen SSD out now, although I admit the I-RAM aint perfect.
to gomeler: PCI/PCI-E interfaces would be very inconvenient and you know it. If we use SLI/CF...how many spare slots do we normally get? 1 x PCI-E x4 and 1 PCI?
A PCI slot wouldnt be enough anyway

lots of boards have 3 PCIe slots, I'd be willing to sacrifice physic for access times considering how this would be primarily used for benching.
someone beat gigabyte to it:

mentioned at computex, suprised no other sites saw this...
Nox
WOW! This is amazing...Big capacity, el-cheap non-ECC DDR2 ram...
Whats the transfer rate and mean? SATA? ATA?
They initially claimed they were going to sell them for ~$60, which was/is reasonable enough for their meager offering of just four dimm slots and sata-150, then when they released it, they charged way, way more than it's worth. I don't how successful they've been with their high price but I do know there's no way I'd give them that much money for such little in return. The last I heard of their next revision was a worthless change of stuffing it in a drive bay with no change in useful specs.
sas it has both sas and sata so I'd assume 3gbs
Ya definitely better than the iram.
Looks really sweet.
Auto backup from CF on the small version and 2.5" drive on the bigbro. Very nice.
I'm trying to think of a use for these things. Obviously swap file. Point all progs to use temp directories on those drives. Heck if that big one can do that auto-backup to a 2.5 drive as well as hold 30GB I'd make it my C: Would hold my Windows dirs, temp dirs, and swap. Interesting...
Edit--
A report on the Computex showing of the ANS-9010
http://www.orioa.com/en/ans-9010/
Babelfished but its not hard to follow.
No price and the reported IOMeter was too high to believe. God I hope its cheap and available in the US. Snow ball chance in H E double hockey sticks, right?

Well, I don't think it's available yet so they haven't quite beaten Gigabyte *yet*.
Very nice product though. When it's available, it will be awesome.

*BUMP* Any update on the i-ram, or Acard's RAM drive (which is much cooler BTW)?
The Acard device sounds promising, hopefully it won't be late out and overpriced
why u bump old dead threads? just make a new one and not in the news section

Where is the sata2 version with ddr2.
Thanks
