one heck of a cool Client PC, maybe once you win the Lotto.

Cool ... very cool:

A defrag of 6 terabytes of stuff under 4 seconds?

I'll guess SH 4 would load in .2 of a second on this rig? :)

Hey! That first one has my Samsung monitor!

Ah, we have something to look forward to, someday that will be the standard rig...of course by then Windows Super Vista 12 will require 400GB of RAM and 6TB of hard drive, so in the end it will still take Office 2014 a full 36 seconds to open :shifty:

Well I doubt we will have 24 SSDs in a standard PC. But a 6TB SSD is not farfetched. Just depends on how far they can minisize the parts.

SSDs have caught up to the HDD counterparts in space and speed but NOT in price yet. They still are not reducing the price because of the extreme cash they are making from buisness clients who cant stand the thought of a hard drive click.
