  1. Look at scalableinformatics by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on Ask Slashdot: Enterprise-Grade Linux Networking Hardware?

    These guys seem to be working on something like that. They are more known for their insanely fast disk and flash storage systems and clusters used by scientific computing and financial users.

  2. They aren't the first, nor the "super"est by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 1, Informative · on Asus Releases Desktop-Sized Supercomputer

    Nvidia has had a page up for a while on this. Most of these units use small desktop motherboards, have limited ram and IO capability, and lots of GPU. These are poor designs for many calculations. These guys have a dual socket, full server class motherboard with up to 144 GB of ECC DDR3 RAM, as well as putting more than 500 MB/s into their local disk IO channel with up to 32 2.5 inch SATA or SAS drives, in a single quiet deskside chassis.

    Asus wasn't the first. They are about a year late to the party.

  4. Re:But at what cost? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 1, Informative · on Sun To Include SSDs On Server Motherboards

    Look at Scalable Informatics for less expensive and faster hardware than thumper and thor. Their founder writes a blog and is talking about their own SSD based unit.

  5. Have you looked at Delta-V ? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on SoHo NAS With Good Network Throughput?

    These guys make fast storage units. Delta-V was announced last week, and they showed it off at SC08 a few weeks ago. I saw their 3U unit in some booth. It was attached to a Windows machine as an iSCSI target, and the guy running the demo was the company founder, and had IOmeter running on it. He got 500 MB/s across the iSCSI link. He said it hooks to anything, windows, linux, Mac, and unix.

  8. why not get one of these 48TB monsters? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on What NAS To Buy?

    The JackRabbit

    They make units that start at 5TB raw all the way up to this 48 TB beast.

  9. why use many CDs when one of these can handle it? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on NASA Spaceship Scouts Out Prime Mars Landing Spots

    Posted on InsideHPC blog, 48TB in 5U. 26TB isn't too much for this monster.

  10. What is the problem? by deadline · · Score: 2, Informative · on Red Hat Not Seeing Microsoft, Ubuntu as Threats

    Red Hat does not offer a competing product, so what is the problem? There are many "cluster distributions" out there, but neither Red Hat, Suse, or any other major vendor have a well integrated cluster version of Linux. There are things like Rocks, Oscar, Warewulf, and companies like Scalable Informatics, or Basement Supercomputing are there if you need help.
