Missing the point. SSD is removing the choke point known as SATA II drives. Have a great system and yet the hdd is typically the limiting factor.

the hd is always the limiting factor in any system

example the rate you download bt files is limited to how fast your drive can write the data so doesn't matter how fast the net is

the only really amazing part is ssd's ability of shocking absorbing.
and i thought current SSD performance is only a tad ebtter than HDD?

They should do a fair comparsion, but plug in 24 HDD's and testing the diff.

That's the thing though... there are no moving parts inside a SSD... that's why it's not affected or damaged by shaking.

I'd like to see how 24 10krpm drives compare.

I'd only use those for an OS drive or something. How do you recover something from a failed SSD? At least with a magnetic HD, the data's still on the platters and you can send it to a data recovery place.

umm...no, you still can recover.

I believe it is no different from recovering a SD card, which I have just done it last night.

If you've done it then it hasn't failed. I'm talking about no longer being detected, physically damaged, etc... with a regular drive, you can remove the platters and recover data... no such luck with an SSD...

Just the 24 SSD drives alone would currently cost over 15 grand.

umm...sweet, I want one...just in case when cops bust into my house to look for child pornography, I'll break it in half, so nothing will be left behind. :D
