Default ANS-9010 Dynamic Solid State Drive - RAMdisk

Question as of 25-September-2009:
What are the reasons not to buy the ANS-9010 RAMdisk?


Background:

I am considering buying the:

ACARD ANS9010 5.25 inch
SATA x 2-to-DDRII RAM Disk
Up to 64GB
(RAM module and CF card not included)


Mwave:
$359.98 USD
-10.00 Coupon
--------------------
$349.98 USD


also

Acard's site


And buying 12 Gb of DDR2 RAM 667MHz for the ANS-9010.
3 RAM kits, with eat kit being
4Gb Ram (2 DIMMs, 2Gb each)


Running the ANS-9010 RAMdisk in RAID 0 (striped disks)


Why?
Looking for a speed increase.


Operating System:
WinXP Pro with some 20 applications is about
7 Giga Bytes of hard drive space.
CPU Intel 9550 Quad


As of September 2009 the local computer store was
selling the Western Digital VelociRaptor for $200 Canadian.


Thus,
$200 Western Digital VelociRaptor
$200 Western Digital VelociRaptor
----------------------------------------
$400 RAID 0 (striped disks)


So for less than $400 Canadian I can get the
ANS-9010 with no RAM.
After getting RAM put in unit in RAID 0 (striped disks)
(two SATA cables going to Motherboard)





Suggestions?
Where to get 12 Gb RAM from?



Other ways to get a large speed increase?



For this situation...
What are the reasons not to buy the
ANS-9010 RAMdisk?



To Your Best

Default Introduction

I found MadShrimps searching for info on the HSPC Tech Station, of all things.

My name is Rich, and I'm from the "wrong" side of the pond, I suppose.




Happy hunting,
GapD

Default Please do not buy at Qsix

I've recently bought a monitor at Qsix and everything is ok upto the moment you need their guarantee because there's a problem with your monitor.

After lots of emails you do get a replacement but you have to pay the shipping costs for shipping the monitor back to them. And I don't even have a monitor without problems now and it has cost me more money.
