Fusion-io ioXtreme teams up with Fatal1ty for branding
Written by Andreas G 07 June 2009 20:40

Fusion-io has some of the most extreme Solid State Drive solutions of today. It's PCI-Express devices are primarily geared toward businesses but it has now made a serious break for the retail industry, although the more extreme segment. Fusion-io ioXtreme has launched together with famous PC gamer Jonathan "Fatal1ty" Wendell, who has managed to get his alias on quite a lot of different products.

Fusion-io ioXtreme has 80GB storage capacity and connects via the PCI Express interface, offering performance way beyond most regular SSDs. As far as we know, Fusion-io is still not bootable which excludes the use as a system disk, which will certainly put off more than a few buyers.

"Drawing from Fusion-io’s industry-leading solid-state technologies, the ioXtreme is a PCI Express card that sits on the system bus filling the performance gap between RAM and disk drives. It adds 80 GB of non-volatile capacity, exponentially accelerating input and output, including file access, and improving application performance dramatically."

When they get this working the interest should increase substantially, and they claim have this coming with future firmware updates, even though the price is a bit high. ioXtreme costs 895 USD for 80GB. The design is a bit more raw and has a Fatal1ty logo on it, which is pretty much the only difference from the regular Fusion-io.
