The problem with current generation SSDs (Sandforce, Marvell) is that they're simply not faster in a discernible way from the X-25M but they're double the price and only 25% larger. There are some users who will benefit from the increased sequential speeds, but now that Intel's new RST drivers pass TRIM on to a RAID array, you can get 160GB of X-25M's for the same price and it will thoroughly spank these drives across the board.
