Anyone remember who made or what that thing was called that was a pci card with slots for ddr memory? It held 4 memory sticks. It was last June I think when it was talked about a lot. I tried searching for it but since I don't know the name that was sort of useless.

There was the gigabit PCI controller card with 4 dimms capable of up to 4GB of storage as an SATA drive. But I also recall someone making an actual large drive out of flash memory or something, but I don't recall the specifics of it.
