is the new intel 730 series going to be the new king of ssd?

They are not as fast as existing SSD's, more midrange.. even with the "overclock". There is no encryption capability built in like there is on many drives. They also eat more power than most other SSD's, and are supposed to run very hot (not good for mobile). They do have an excellent lifespan rating, and very consistent IO.

Or so I read in the link below:
