SSD Awesomeness
   You may have seen that video on YouTube from the Samsung marketing folks in the UK where they hook up 24 SSD's to make a super-fast computer.  Well, on a lesser budget I bought 5 Crucial Extreme 64GB SSD's and plopped them onto my EVGA motherboard. Using only the built-in RAID 0 for a striped array I am getting 650MB/s throughput.  That's 35% of the Samsung's demo for about, well, 10% of the cost.  Pretty pleased with it.

Cheers, D
