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

The board I'm looking at is a 120 GB drive. Plenty for a system install. I'm trying to go for tiered storage, so I want the SSD as the system drive, a 10,000 RPM, 600 GB VelociRaptor (SATA III / 6 Gbps) in the box with a gigabit Ethernet-connected NAS with 8 TB RAID 5 (5.5 TB available) as my near-line storage.
