That is until the Gen3 Intel drives hit the market. =)

The new OCZ Vertex 2 Pro series will use this sandforce chip.

We don't need SATA 3.0. It is useless if you have Raid 1 or Raid 0 with 2 SSD. My Read speed is 500Mb/s on SATA 2.

The cheap end doesn't really exist yet, BUT you can get a 30GB SSD for about $110 or so.
