HDDBOOST, usingSSD to HDD

demiurge

Junior Member
I was wanting on some new tech. Silverstone tech. has a product coming out called HDDBoost. It is supposed to link an SSD to an existing HDD to enhance the speed of accessing info off of the HDD, so improving overall speed of the computers performance. I am not a computer geek.😱
More like a wannabe! :biggrin: Officially the product comes out in March and I want to know if the product is up to its claims.

This is the website address. I don't know if this with pique the interest of one of the anantech guys or if someone has knowledge about this Idea and product.
 
So what I gotta do is wait to find out if someone nerved up to buy the product and review it. 🙂 so I can find out if it is worth the money to install it or if it is like the whistles that pple put on cars to scare off deers. one comment made was just use 24gig of ram that may work in win7 but it definately don't work 32bit win vista. so I gotta ask is anyone going to try it out when it comes on market??
 
superspeed ramdisk plus ? works on xp for as much ram as you got. keep in mind all 32 bit o/s were crippled to 32bit ram addressing. the server edition (enterprise) can do 36 bit iirc or more

Some RAM disk software will use memory above 4GB on 32-bit installations. Only issue is the time required to load drive images after a reboot.
 
memory to high end nehalem is 30-35gb/s with 12gb/s QPI interlink (if you have a 2nd processor) - i'm not sure that most ssd can reach that level so depending on use the long term of a ramdisk might not be a bad idea to try.
