This will depends of your I/O, if you have a raid 0 of HD, a ssd or a raid of ssd ; it will depends also of your SATA ; a card SATA III will be better .

Paul,
I'm concerned about the costs of all these SSD drives.
Do only samples have to be on the SSD drives to gain this 10 x advantage or does the O/S and software also have to be on an SSD?
And could I get away with just two SSDs for the whole symphonic cube or is 4 a lot better?

Hello Dave,
Yes, SSD drives are not cheap.
Yes, only your samples need to be on an SSD drive (and you can mix drives, if you want, so you would place the samples you rarely need on a separate sATA drive).
2 or 4 drives depends on the size of the drives.....
We have just pointed to a special offer for the Angelbird SSD drives, which we are using in Vienna.
Best,
Paul

Oooh! that's uncannily clever of you and the Angelbird people.
The only remaining question (other than convincing myself i can justify the cost) is will 4 x 120GB SSDs be sufficient for the whole symphonic cube (you can see all the libraries I own) will they all fit comfortably on four 120 GB drives?
Thanks Paul.

Hi Paul, you're quite right but I won't be at my VSL PC for some time and thought you might have an idea. I'll check it later bt I have afeeling 4 120GB SSDs won't be enough.
Can I ask one more question.
I note you can get the PCI card with onboard memory. Do I understand it correctly that that is for loading the OS (WIN7 in my case) onto the PCI card and boot the PC from the PCI card?
What about all my other software currently on the C/drive HDD. Will I still be able to run everything else whilst the OS is operating from the PCI card?
Or have I hopelessly misunderstood.
