The "E" in X25-E does not mean "enterprise". It means "extreme". Like
the "EE" series CPUs that Intel offers.

Yet most of their web site seems to aim it quite firmly at the 'Enterprise' market, "Imagine replacing up to 50 high-RPM hard disk drives with one Intel® X25-E Extreme SATA Solid-State Drive in your servers" or, "Enterprise applications place a premium on performance, reliability, power consumption and space."

If you don't mind a little data loss risk? :)

I'll post back when we've had a chance to try one in the 'real world' for our applications - with and without caching, especially when the plug gets pulled :)

Otherwise, at least on the surface the quest for the 'perfect' (performance, safety, price, size) ZIL continues...
