Something I've been waiting to see. Not cheap but the speed is definitely starting to catch up with the price.

OCZ claims that the RevoDrive will be able to achieve speeds of up to 540 MBps (read) and 530 MBps (write), as well as 75,000 IOPS. The RevoDrive's cost hasn't been finalized yet, but expect it to be priced within 15 percent of similarly sized SSDs.

very nice specs, good for pcmark? how reliable are pci-e drives as compared to SATA

Never seen a pci-e drive tested under high pci-e freq... hoping that doesn't kill them off easy.

Epic speed though. good for superpi as well?

Just as reliable. Killer for PCMark.

That's the $1,000,000 question. I'm going to guess that 130mhz isn't going to go over well though.

Probably do not even have time to pick your nose while it boots .............

Looks pretty sick if it can hang at 115

So my Intel X SSds are junk already.......that's just great.

lol, I wouldn't think so.... I don't even own an ssd yet. I'm waiting for large capacity/good times/sub $200 like I did with my HDDs a few years back.

pci-e drives are not currently worth the $$$ imo, especially for what we do.

If this does turn out to be 250gb for $450 im in
