I am considering an OCZ RevoDrive SSD that takes the form of a PCI-Express x4 card. I have not been able to find compatibility or support information for Linux, though apparently it works OK under Windows 7.
I want to make this a system / boot drive.
Any information, especially direct experience, would be welcome.
No direct experience I'm afraid, I'm staying away from SSDs until they become big enough to warrant my attention, but here is a review that says they tested on Ubuntu 10.10 with no issues, which should mean it works in openSUSE 11.4 as well

I'm highly intriqued with SSD and follow them closely, but anecdotally they seem to have a very short MTBF. (Mean Time Between Failures.) Everyone I personally know that has bought one has had it die in the first year. I hope the reality is better than my perception.
