However, I remember using SSD cards on Mac II fx that plugged into the nubus slots. In the 1970s and 80s, Cray was using Solid State Storage of their 64bit cell based systems that didn't use the slow drive interfaces. Does anyone know of solid state storage that plugs directly into a PCI-X or EX slot without the bottleneck of disk drive interfaces? Rotating disk drives are very old but it seems as if makers are comfortably numb using them even though companies such as ATTO Technologies gave solid state storage for the PC/Workstation it a try a while back.
