    [Hardware]
    TG Daily reported on a new hardware targeted at businesses who requires powerful and fast storage.
    Extract:
    IoDrive is a PCI Express card with a controller and NAND flash chips. This isn’t a controller for other drives, but rather a self-contained storage device that can be easily popped into an empty motherboard slot.

    Starting from 80GB, the company plans to scale up to 320GB & 640GB next year. The card will have 160 parallel pipelines that can read data at 800 megabytes per second and write at 600 MB/sec. Pretty awesome figures there.
    The company has planned for it to be used on some gaming applications, as reported by TG Daily.
    Now…the thing is, who is willing to spend a big amount of $ for their high end gaming rig ? It’s $30 a GB
