You’ve got to stay on the bleeding edge of component offerings when you’re trying to charge the prices that Alienware does, so it’s no surprise that the Dell subsidiary is the self-proclaimed first manufacturer on the market to stuff dual 64GB solid state disks into a consumer PC. Of course, you’ll be paying out the nose to add 128GB of un-RAIDed SSD goodness to an Area-51 m9750 gaming notebook — just about $2,000, nearly doubling the machine’s base price. Those feeling a little “stingier” or perhaps requiring more storage space can also opt for a 64GB SSD / 200GB 7,200RPM HDD combo as well, which only tacks another $1,400 onto an entry-level rig. Still, despite the steep cost, we’re sure that there are more than a few folks out there who can’t put a price on having the fastest read times in their guild.
