Is there any reason you don't use SATA SSD?
The need for speed and the desire to avoid setting up my own internal RAID 0 array, which from what I can tell is the only way to match the RevoDrive x2's performance. I'm building what I hope will qualify (for a few months, anyway) as a fast desktop machine. It's a Sandy Bridge system with an i7 2600K CPU, the P67 chipset on an ASUS P8P67 EVO board with 16 GB of 1600 MHz DDR3 DRAM, the RevoDrive x2 SSD and a 600 GB VelociRaptor (10,000 RPM SATA III). I haven't picked the graphics hardware, yet. I'm going to swap in the video card from the system its replacing for the time being. By the way, up 'til now, I've used SCSI drives, first Ultra 160 and in my latest system, Ultra 320 15,000 RPM drives (which are none to capacious and rather expensive, too).
