Fascinating link, thanks for posting it.
I was writing a nice long reply about what this means for usage, but I've just
been on the Fusion-io web site, and it appears they have updated their
documentation. They now state:
Write MB/s: 600
Read MB/s: 700
Read IOPS: 102,000 (sustained 4k
Yes, we've been pleasantly surprised by the demand.
But, that doesn't mean we're not anxious to expand
our ability to address such an important market as
OpenSolaris and ZFS.
We're actively working on OpenSolaris drivers. We
don't expect it to take long - I'll keep you posted.

Isn't this what is expected from FLASH-based SSD devices? They have
to erase before they can write. The vendor is kind enough
Just a thought, will we be able to split the ioDrive into slices and use it
simultaneously as a ZIL and slog device? 5GB of write cache and 75GB of read
cache sounds to me like a nice way to use the 80GB model.

D'oh, meant ZIL / slog and L2ARC device. Must have posted that before my early
morning cuppa!

Regarding Solaris, or just a generic cold call? Either way it's interesting to
hear that they're making calls. The impression I've had from all the press is
that they've been struggling to meet demand.

I agree, it looks like it would be perfect, but unfortunately without Solaris
drivers it's pretty much a non starter.
That hasn't stopped me pestering Fusion-IO wherever I can though to see if they
are willing to develop Solaris drivers, almost everywhere I've seen these
reviewed there have

Looks like a cool SSD to go with ZFS
Has anybody tried ZFS with Fusion-IO storage? For that matter even with
Solaris?

Last time I played with one of those, the problem was that it didn't have any
drivers for Solaris. It's a PCIE device unlike something like the gigabyte
I-Ram or Intel SSD or something.
