Doesn't say how much it all cost though.

saw it yesterday

They also had to fiddle with the low level raid settings - seems like it needs a few weeks to be a mature technology.

Awesome. How much does just one of those cost? I can't find a price anywhere.

I think you need to build your own, you could price up the components and factor in a discount for buying a whole crate if SSDs.

However, none of their tests seemed to need 6TB of storage. So really you could make do with 4-8 SSDs for the same system.
