The day a HDD change doubles my framerates within the next 5 years is the day i will give you all an eCookie.

BTW You guys did read the article?
And know that intel did run flyby of a game in extreme high speed.
So that the game had to load new textures and other level content all the time.
That is the only reason why the disk speed direct impacts the fps!

In "real" gaming you would never hit a situation with that much stuff to load.
And still the writing speed of a SSD suckz ;o)

Intel did a great trick here to make their drives perform well....

even still, why would A game be programmed to do that?. So pointless since it will stress out the harddrive
