Dr. Busch talks about raid performance with ssd's in the Q&A on this podcast @ 47min 20 seconds. It's a shame he does not elaborate more but clearly he is not impressed with hard or soft raid.

that is a very good link and has a lot of very good info thanks!
i did note however that he was mistaken when he replied, and he acknowledges that he was refering to raid 5, not raid 0, and they even go on to mention some stripe size recommendations for ssd and raid 0. you have to listen until 49:30 when he acknowledges his mistake and then they start talking about hte raid 0 again, and one of the guys even brags about his 500 mb/s on his raid 0 array at home alot of it is also that he is not referring to the concept or usage of raid itself, but the fact that the current (at the time) hardware raid controllers and software are not optimized for it with raid 5(or probably parity in general, he is talking about redundancy because he mentions that the image of the drive is a better backup system) i do not get video on that link, only audio , but i am going to listen to the whole thing later. captivating!
