Hot Hardware have reviewed the budget friendly Corsair Accelerator 30GB Caching SSD, a companion solid state drive which is optimized for caching applications in conjunction with a standard HDD.

Let's see what they had to say:

"Corsair's 30GB Cache Accelerator delivers almost all of the 60GB SSD's performance, but at a significantly lower price. In uncertain economic times, it's easier to justify a $55 dollar expense than an $85 upgrade, especially when a 3D movie for a family of 4 will set you back almost as much -- and that's just for the tickets. The 30GB Cache Accelerator is a great option for upgrading an older system, especially if you're trying to breathe new life into it for a year or two while saving up for something else. Even 4-5 year-old hardware can benefit enormously from an SSD, and Dataplex's software gives even the performance of a 5400 RPM HDD a huge kick in the rear."


This is an excellent way to boost performance of an older system without spending all that much money. Check it out!
