What advantage would this box have over the OS disk cache? The OS checks that before ever hitting the HD in the first place. Why not just add that extra RAM to the system. I have 256MB of RAM on my system (win NT) and my HD is mostly idle; the caching seems to work quite well.

I'm interested, but I'd have to see what this gets me that the OS cache doesn't.
