How much does it charge per > copy? It is indeed a commercial product. Check with FSMLabs for information on it.

Like other UNIX-ish systems, BSD is not suitable for hard-real-time applications. On the other hand, it works quite well for embedded applications focused on efficiency rather than controlling latency. Not knowing your requirements, there's little more guidance we can give you. However, there is quite a bit of material you may find useful. Have you looked at the FreeBSD Documentation article on "FreeBSD and Solid State Devices"? Good luck. -- Lowell Gilbert, embedded/networking software engineer, Boston area http://be-well.ilk.org/~lowell/
