GBTV #527 | Have you seen apps open this fast?

Shownotes:

We’ve all had the desire to have the fastest computer in the world, but this guy did something about it! He put 24 Samsung Solid State Hard Drives in a PC and in this promotional video demonstrates just how fast it is in today’s video. It doesn’t matter how fast your computer is, you know what you ultimately want is instant response. You click an icon and the app is instantly up and running for you. This is the closest thing I’ve ever seen to that.

    The closest thing you’ve seen to this? Maybe you’re too young to remember the Amiga.. but that was lightning speed thanks to the chipset… history is just repeating it’s self with different players!

  2. Jonathan Says:

    I think most geeks are aware this sort of thing is possible, I remember when we were networking commodore 64s together back in the mid 80s to make more powerful computers, but the real issue is PRICE.

    How much did that system COST? That question wasn’t answered in the episode :)

  3. WyX Says:

    It is very possible to do it in a Mac Pro, just find the RAID controllers that are supported by Apple and plug them all in. :)

    amazing video! i’d love to do it. but why didn’t he choose Intel i7 is strange…… i thought new Mac Pros already using dual-socket i7.

    another thing i spotted is that he got the Zalman 9700’s wrong way round.

    what puzzles me is that he is lagging in Crysis, and he didn’t tell us Crysis load time. (which i thing it’s CPU bound)

  4. JoshHarrow Says:

    wow, that’s really more than fast *laugh* Would be very interesting, if this would work with Macs too… :D would love to see that :-)

  5. FighterHayabusa Says:

    That was SWEET!!! Now imagine that running on a really fast OS instead of crummy Windows ;-)

  6. Daynah Says:

    That’s such a funny video. :) And boy is that computer fast!

  7. Shannon Says:

    Speaking of Wolfram Alpha, I have a friend who works @ Wolfram Research. He said Alpha is kind of cool and interesting, but thinks it may end up a fad. He’s says it won’t hurt Google.

  8. Linh Says:

    There’s one flaw to this video. You can already attain/exceed the 2GB/s throughput with normal HDD’s. It’s done on an enterprise level with SAN’s. I’m pretty sure it can scale pretty damn high.

    This is no where near consumer. 24 drives to one machine… that is one hell of a hack proof of concept, which IMO doesn’t impress much.

    It’s definitely a neat demo and project, but samsung, how maxing out the new SATA3 specs.. with a single drive I can stick in my machine.

  9. Paul Billy Says:

    they had me at 2GB a second

  10. Chris Says:

    You might be able to do so if steve lets you.

  11. Jacco Oldekamp Says:

    That is well cool!

  12. Oli from the-iBlog Says:

    I’m a big fan of Solid State Drives – I use one in my MacBook. It’d be great to see this kind of RAID in a Mac Pro ! Some very impressive speed tests.

  13. Jonfun Says:

    Holy hard drives Batman! Your, outakes CONTINUE to disturb me. “Freaky” mood.

    Go outside, breath or something. I think the HD camera may be frying you like an egg. Well, not in bad way because the tech news comes across alright. Yeah, anyways, did they put a pricetag on how much that would cost?

  14. George Says:

    I am voting for you Cali even though you didn’t pick any of my stories to win on your give-aways (I know my submissions were WAY better). I am not sure WHY you didn’t pick me but I won’t hold that against you. I still will help you with your dream.

  15. Pauly Says:

    The song in that video is by MJ Hibbett http://www.mjhibbett.net previously famed for geek classic “Hey Hey 16k”

  16. Boots Says:

    You can do something similar to this on your Mac. Just open up application and then shut it down. Much of the app is cached in RAM so next time you go to start the app, your app opens in less than a bounce. This is how Steve did his demos. Ever notice how his Mac opened apps much faster than yours with similar specs? If you have gobs of RAM you can create RAMdrives and run programs from it instead of your real hard drive.

  17. Tom in Plano, TX Says:

    Yes, pretty obvious result that doesn’t require solid state. The bad camera work just about made me sick to my stomach, though!!

  18. John in Tucson Says:

    Love your Podcast Ms. Lewis!

    Can you get the specs for this system? Including costs?

    Amazing!

    Thanks again, and keep up the great work!

  19. Tony Says:

    This was already conceived of at the time when we were inventing RAID technology back in 93-95 (our old company holds most of the patents surrounding RAID). Randy Katz at UC Berkeley who was leading Raid research had conceived of the possibilities to apply his RAID algorithms to solid state arrays. In fact, he conceived of storage blocks that would represent individual arrays of memory. Of course at the time it would have been price and capacity as the problem. Its gratifying to see how the price points are now making something like this possible – potentially in a NAS configuration at some point.

  20. Kevin Says:

    Hey Cali! Love your podcast.
    Could you confirm whether that’s really Mega Bytes and not mega bits? 24 SSD’s at approx. 200megabits /sec = 4800 megabits(mb as opposed to MB meaning MegaBytes)a sec. Divided by 8 to give MB’s = 600 MegaBytes/ sec. 2000 MB’s/sec would = 16000mb/sec. So you see 2000MB/sec. would be way beyond what these drives are rated for. Thanks
