These magnetic storage companies are buying everyone they can to stay relevant. I'm still disappointed that WD hasn't followed Seagates' footsteps with a legitimate SSD product. The WD Black2 is a joke...I still can't wrap my head around how pointless it is.
I have the WD Dual Drive, it's in a Clevo workstation laptop with one drive bay as far as I know and works very well, it boots basically as quickly as my desktop that runs from a Samsung 840. No idea how much the cost as I won the laptop, but is definitely a nice bit of kit.
So this thing is supposed to be 99 times better than a Violin box which is already stuffed full of flash devices. So they get 99 ties the storage density but don't have anything like the cooling solution? They are much faster too. And I can't find a third party review ANYWHERE. So did they really ever have a product?
