Check these out http://www.3dprofessor.org/Reviews%2.../INTELSSD1.htm very nice performance. PCmark05 interesting all HDD tests were 2x to 3x times my 32GB OCZ SSD Core disks except File write test where Intel SSD was 1/2 what the OCZ SSD core managed but still overall Intel SSD vs OCZ SSD Core Pcmark05 hdd test was like 22.5k verus 12.6k

System/tests:

Microsoft Windows XP Professional SP3
HD Tach 3.0.4.0
HD Tune Pro Ver 3

PCMark 2005 Advanced
3DS Max SP2 Scenes
SPECapc for SolidWorks 2007™
SPECviewperf® 10.0 – ran at 1280 X 1024 Resolution.

160Gb for main drive, pricing would be the issue.

Getting closer.
