* PURE NAND FLASH MEMORY HARD DRIVE, no spinning platters!
* 16GB capacity - enough for a large Windows XP installation
* 2.5" Laptop PATA form factor, simply replace your current drive!
* 3.5" adapter available for desktop computers
* NO MOVING PARTS
* SILENT OPERATION
* Uses 5 percent of the power of a normal hard drive
* Adds 40 minutes to battery life on a laptop
* Light Weight
* No moving parts, nothing to break
* 4,000,000 MTBF, 2,000,000 write / erase cycles
* 32F to 158F operation temperature envelope (0C to 70C)
* instant, <2ms access
* 8MB read / 6MB write speeds fast enough for HD, audio / photo / video editing
* same cost per gigabyte (GB) as the i-RAM, but you get 4X the storage with this unit!
* approx $124 per GB

Memory "chips" have been and always will be more expensive than a mechanical hard drive. How much would 16GB of system RAM cost you (if you could even jam it in your system)? Probably more than $599. You turn of the computer's power, the information in your system RAM goes away, but the NAND Flash RAM, of course it stays intact. You don't even need to connect it to a battery or external power source as you would the i-RAM from Gigabyte, or other solutions.
