The PX #Rxxx looks like a MLC (accesstime)
yeh at first i thought i got mlc at the price of slc.. but the write performance is higher than that of their ox ssd (mlc)

Hard raid is not used to targeting high-speed random data in small chunks, consequently the peak write/ read transfer rate efficiency is pushed out to 64k before it peaks and levels out, however the cache covers this shortfall in performance of the ssd.

In other words hard raid lowers peak write/ read transfer rate efficiency at typical OS workloads, but the cache makes up this shortfall and provides a positive advantage over 64k transfer rates.
let me make it clear.. "it wouldnt be pretty without 1231" i was not referring to the cache.. whether its 512mb or 2gb cache the 4x ssd perform @ max
