A Hybrid Approach For SSD Speed From Your 2TB HDD

Posted by timothy on from the bottleneck-feedback-loop dept.

Claave writes "bit-tech.net reports that SilverStone has announced a device that daisy-chains an SSD with a hard disk, with the aim of providing SSD speeds plus loads of storage space. The SilverStone HDDBoost is a hard disk caddy with an integrated storage controller, and is an easy upgrade for your PC. The device copies the 'front-end' of your hard disk to the SSD, and tells your OS to prefer the SSD when possible. SSD speeds for a 2TB storage device? Yep, sounds good to me!"

    Once again, you are full of fail. You don't think that maybe that was written just AFTER you made your uninformed post and PRIOR to when you decided to actually read the article and then post a correction?

    Gosh, I dunno... maybe. We aren't in an IRC chat room. I know that's kind of hard to grasp for people with short attention spans, but really... we aren't. This is a message forum, it's not real time.
