24 Samsung SSDs get strung together for supercomputer fun
Engadget —
It wasn't all that long ago when a mere nine SSD drives in a RAID array was enough to cause most folks' jaws to drop, but the world of ridiculous technology exercises moves quickly, and we can only be thankful that a select few continually feel the need to one-up each other and share their results with all of us.

24 SSDs In RAID = 2GB/s Throughput
Overclockers Club news Feed —
We all know that solid state drives (SSDs) are fast, and when you grab a few of them and set them up in a RAID array they are fast enough to push the limits of even accomplished dedicated RAID controllers. So how about putting 24 drives into a 6TB RAID array and seeing what kind of performance you can get out of them? Well, when asked to show how great Samsung SSDs are, a marketing team thought the best way to do it was just that. In putting the array through its paces, they managed to achieve throughput of 2GB/s (yes, Gigabytes). Some of the real world performance demonstrations are also pretty impressive, such as opening up all the programs in the ...

Fudzilla —
Image 53 programs open in 18.9 secs We came across an interesting video that shows just what happens when you chain 24 SSDs in RAID. The SSDs are Samsung s MLC SSD 256GB models and to say that the end result is impressive is an understatement. The guys used two Quad Core QX9775 processors, two HD 4870 X2s in Crossfire, custom 800MHz FBDIMM RAM (4GB), two 1000MHz power supplies, and 24 SSDs totaling at 6TB. The results as we mentioned in the title are past impressive, as after a bit of experimenting they scored past 2GB per second. Opening a bunch of Office programs took a mere 0.5 seconds, whereas simultaneous opening of all the start menu programs took ...

Samsung Pairs 24 SSDs Together in RAID for Ultimate Speed
Techgage News —
We all know that SSDs are fast, that much is no secret, but just how fast are 24 strapped together in a RAID configuration? Well, freaking fast, of course. Some Samsung employees decided to find out first-hand what benefits such a configuration would entail, so they took 24 256GB models (~$11,000 USD), put them in a high-end system, and then went ahead to see what kind of benefits could be exhibited, and yes, it's all quite drool-worthy.
In one test, they opened up the full Microsoft Office suite (looks like eight applications in their taskbar). From the moment they pushed enter, the entire suite was on their screen ready for action in half of a ...
