HotHardware has gotten their hands on OCZ Z-Drive which is basically 4 OCZ Vertex series SSD drives setup in RAID configuration, and combined with a PCI Express RAID controller. The onboard RAID controller is powered by PCIe slot and the drives require a single 4-pin molex power connector. The current configuration shown is 512GB capacity with four 128GB SSDs setup in RAID 0. I am sure much larger capacities will be available eventually.
Update: Z-Drive has been listed at Amazon, and the asking prices are as follows:
250GB – $1,561.30
500GB - $2,450.50
1TB - $3,368.99
Ouch! This is a great product I am sure, but come on ….
