OP Fail. No drive size. No final price.

Please just go ahead and report stuff like this without posting in it. No need to drive the thread off-topic.

I went ahead and fixed your post OP, please follow the directions next time.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now on a personal note, if you just like pitching away money like mad, then this is probably a good deal. :p

I'll stick with my 80GB for now thanks.

Sorry I posted too fast. There is a fine balance of coffee intake and I was on my 3rd when i posted :D

In any case, I don't think you can get 50k random iops any cheaper can you? That is what makes this hawt.

Edit: 100GB Benchiez here: Benches
 
I think a 3-drive, X25 RAID0 would give 240GB with much higher performance at $660 total. So the LE is a smoking drive, but only a warmish deal at $800 IMO.
 
There are downsides to multiple drives in raid0...
sata ports aren't free
power isn't free
case space isn't free...
 
Sata ports are a valid argument, but I don't think anyone running raid cares. As for the other two, the insanely low power consumption of an SSD, lower heat output, and smaller profile make those points pretty much invalid. I can fit about 5 standard drives in my bays, and probably about 20 SSD's.
 
You can't stick a raid in a laptop.

Yes you can, there are several laptops on the market with 2 drives, probably sager most notably. Going SSD there would be a great move given the power and heat savings.

Of course with no trim support in Raid, it's not the greatest right now.

I knew someone was gonna say something like that :p
Ok, you can't stick a raid in most laptops (without modding them).
