Yeah, I suspected something like this. So the drive exposes only half of its advertised capacity to the host. Assuming the touted "intelligent caching algorithms" are implemented in the drive and not the Windows-only software that OCZ provides, maybe it would compare favorably in a dm-cache configuration to conventional SSDs. Maybe not.
Anyway, the drives in the link seem to be EOL.
