Coeo are giving away a Fusion-IO card at SQLBits
I am very excited to announce that to celebrate Coeo’s recent partnership with Fusion-IO we’ll be giving away an 80GB Fusion-IO ioEXTREME card to a lucky attendee at SQLBits.
If you’ve never looked at Fusion-IO before, now is your chance to check-out what you’ve been missing.
Have a look at the official product page for this card here:

and then check-out Brent Ozar’s Fusion-IO review here:

The card we’re giving away is intended to supercharge a workstation and only requires a free PCI-E slot on your motherboard to install. Its capable of reading 64K packets at 670MB/s with an access latency of 80 microseconds. Remember when you were happy if SQL Server had <5 milliseconds of disk latency?
Watch this space for more details on the competition. You’ll have to be at SQLBits in York to be in with a chance so if you haven’t registered already click here to sign-up: http://www.sqlbits.com
See you all there in September!
Regards,
Christian
