Yes, the sandforce based ssd's are also interesting. I think both, the 1500
sure can, could be fitted with the necessary supercap to prevent dataloss in
case of unexpected power loss. And the 1500 based models will available with a
SAS interface needed for clustering. Something the DDRdrive cannot do. BUT at
this moment they certainly do not match the DDRdrive in performance and
probably also not in MTBF. The DDRdrive only writes to ddr ram, hence the name.
Only in case of power loss the ram contents will be written to flash. At least
this is what I understand and know of it. The ddr ram doesn't suffer the
wear/degradation any flash memory type suffers.
You can buy multiple sandforce ssd's with supercap for the price of a single
DDRdrive X1. Choice is good!
