Most Expensive Hard Drive
Written by: jeremy Filed Under: Luxury on August 8th, 2009
Okay, technically it’s a whole lot of hard drives.
The most expensive storage on the market is an array of twenty RamSan-620 solid state drives weighing in at a grand total of 100 terabytes. According to Texas Memory Systems, makers of the storage system, the RamSan 6200 is capable of 5,000,000 IOPS (independent operations per second) and sustained bandwidth of up to 60 GB/s.
The RamSan 6200 offers data protection with dependable chips, an “active-spare” system in case a drive actually does fail, and data mirroring in separate Logical Storage Units.
Perhaps the most impressive part of the system is that it draws only 6 kilowatts.
The world’s most expensive storage system has a hefty price of $4.4 million.
