I just spoke with a co-worker about doing something about it.
He says he can design a small in-line "UPS" that will deliver 20-30
seconds of 3.3V, 5V, and 12V to the SATA power connector for about $50
in parts. It would be even less if only one voltage was needed. That
should be enough for most any SSD to finish any pending writes.
Oh I wasn't kidding when I said I was going to have to try this with my home
server. I actually do some circuit board design and this would be an amusing
project. All you probably need is 5v- I'll look into it.
Two Supercaps should do the trick. Dive connectors only have 5 and 12v.
