HardOCP takes a look at the Corsair Accelerator 30GB & 60GB Caching SSD

Many users are unsure what path to take, if any, when it comes to transitioning to Solid State Disks, a.k.a. SSDs. There are a number of reasons that keep these customers on the fence, and the new line of Corsair Accelerator Series caching SSDs are designed to address this group of customers.

When I ask a "normal" user what type of computer they just purchased, usually they reply with something along the lines of; "It it a Dell with 2 Terabytes." Some aren’t even sure what that means, let alone whether they are referring to the capacity of the RAM or the HDD. While this may seem weird to us nuts-and-bolts guys, we have to realize that not all consumers even care about what type of HDD, RAM, or even CPU that they have in their computer. They just want something that is fast, reliable and relatively cheap.

Convincing these customers to make the jump to SSDs and the performance benefits can be difficult. Price is a major concern, and usually many do not consider an SSD due to having a limited budget for their new or existing computer. The upfront investment for an SSD is large, even though it is much lower now than in the past. The small capacities of SSDs do not help, especially if you are measuring the net worth of the computer by the size of the storage. For some that is just the reality that keeps them from purchasing an SSD.
