I don't think the 311 has any over-provisioning (other than the 7% from GB -> GiB conversion). I believe it is an X25-E with only 5 channels populated. The upcoming enterprise models are MLC based and have greater over-provisioning AFAIK. The 20GB 311 only costs ~ $100 though. The 100GB Intel 710 costs ~ $650. The 311 is a good choice for home or budget users, and it seems that the 710 is much bigger than it needs to be for slog devices. -B -- Brandon High : bh...@freaks.com _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
