Thanks for the reply...

It is true that people can use a driver based ramdisk, but I would not put any critical data on it. This is typically used for a swap space or maybe a mailserver spool. I guess I cannot repeat this enough to convince people: I have already ironed out ALL technical details to make this work. It is currently running in production. There is no danger of data loss with the way I have it setup (combination of hardware and software). To address the concern of network bottleneck, we have implemented a VSAN, which is capable of 10Gbps.

Aside from the technical details I pose my original questions again:

Is anyone else doing this? Would anyone need this service? What would be your typical requirements? Advice?

BTW, the 35Mb of transfer is PER MB, so if you purchase 1GB you will get 3500Mb of transfer.
