Default High End SSD's?

Would it be possible for Tankguys to carry some of the high end SSD's? Not the Samsung stuff but Mitron? What would be the price point?

I cant believe people want to spend that much for hard drives... I mean the performance is great, but Its like DDR3 RAM, the price needs to take big hits before it becomes practical.

No dice, looks like there aren't any really available in the distribution channel yet. I'll keep my eyes open though!

I personally think the SSD's...are just a rip. Yes they are fast and fancy but price per GB is beyond bloody shocking...When they start to even look considerable price wise I may look into it.

You gotta remember that not everyone cares about price, it's completely irrelevant to some. Others are being instructed to build the fastest system possible for someone else.

From what I've read, these little Mtron SSDs are awesome. I'd love to grab one and throw my OS on there.

http://www.mtron.net/English/Product...e=MSD-SATA3025

Compare access time -

Raptor - 5.2ms
SSD - 0.1ms

You don't like loading screens it might be worth it.
