Hi Chris, thanks and Yes I do plan to use these in a design. I have a design for some business critical apps coming up and either these or local SSD's on a RAID card are options being considered (local SSD's much more expensive). The VM's that need the performance are protected from data loss at the application level. So they are good candidates for this type of technology. Also Oracle (or MS SQL) Databases are good candidates for the ioTurbine cacheing technology. You might be interested to know that most of the blade vendors have OEM agreements with Fusion-io and you can get the 'accelerator' cards as they're called installed in a mez slot in the blades. So these can be used both for VDI and also for business critical apps under the right circumstances, even in blades.
