OCZ has just announced the 2nd generation of it’s Z-Drive called the R2. It’s an SSD, that fits into your PCIE slot and it’s available in capacities from 256gb to 2-TB. No mention of price in the press release, but I can only imagine that most of us couldn’t afford it..

The innovative Z-Drive R2 SSD maximizes bandwidth by taking the SATA bottleneck out of the equation and utilizes the speed advantages of the PCI-Express interface. Unlike competing solutions, the Z-Drive family is bootable and with 8 PCI-E lanes and an eight-way RAID 0 configuration, the R2 delivers performance ideal for enterprise applications that are limited by HDD technology. What also makes the R2 especially exceptional is the use of interchangeable modules in the place of permanent, surface-mounted NAND; this unique feature-set is designed to make the Z-Drive field-serviceable and field-upgradeable.
