My next upgrade

I am surprised this hasn't been mentioned
24 Samsung SSDs get strung together for supercomputer fun

I would change;

Intel xeons (based on nehalem) in a dual socket motherboard + watercooling blacks. The KustomPCs.co.uk - Lian Li PC343B Server Cube Case with 5 of these KustomPCs.co.uk - Lian Li EX-34B HDD Bay Black which would coincidentally use up all but one 5.25" bay, strap a 3 4x120 watercooling rads on the back then get my tri-sli gtx285s with 6gb of ram finally making a Virginal sacrifice to Windows

24 Solid State Drives Open ALL of Microsoft Office In .5 Seconds

24 Solid State Drives Open ALL of Microsoft Office In .5 Seconds

Warning: This clip is a piece of Samsung marketing material.
Warning 2: It's actually pretty fracking amazing, and it might change your view of computers.
Samsung techies linked 24 of the company's 256GB SSD drives together in a RAID with the hopes of making the fast SSD drives even faster. The system actually reaches transfer speeds of 2GBps. What's that much speed mean to you?
• All of Microsoft Office opens in .5 seconds.
• 53 programs from the test rig's Start menu open in 18 seconds.
• The complete system defrags in about 3 seconds.
Basically, we all know that hard drives are holding other components in computers back, slowing down our day to day usage. But I'll be honest in saying that I didn't things were this bad. While almost no mortal could afford to build this amazing rig, suddenly that SATA3 technology isn't looking so impressive.

I kinda liked it when he was jumping on the trampoline while holding the 24 disk array.

 

[Kharn]

robust little array isnt it, SSD's are just what I need in my laptops the only drawback in my mind is there relativity low capacity.

 

[Hefemeister]

250gb should be fine and you can have it all for the low price of £585.02
