Introduced at Computex in June, the aptly named Colossus 1TB SSD from OCZ is expected to hit store shelves later this month, says Gizmag. The 14.1-ounce 3.5-inch drive claims to have a read speed of 250MB/s and write speeds up to 220MB/s via SATA2. The RAID 0 compliant drive will supposedly hit store shelves later this month for ~$2500.

For that price, you could be a decent raid card and 4 Crucial 280MB/s read SSD and stripe them, I just built a webserver with 4 OCZ Apex SSD drives and an areca ARC-1210. I was able to copy and paste a 700MB ISO (and XP install) onto the desktop in a little over 1 second.
But would you have 1TB capacity?
I don’t think anyone can justify spending $2500 on a 1TB drive.
Aside from the wealthy of course. But you can’t go anywhere unless you start somewhere, so at least its started. Now we just have to way 6 month’s to a year before its a bit more realistically affordable.
