I just ordered a new SSD (a Vertex4), as they're pretty cheap now and the newer drives are virtually running at the wire speed of SATA3.
Just for kicks I benchmarked my existing 240gb Vertex 2 which I brought two years ago (to get a before and after). I'm pretty surprised by how much slower it has got over time (the sequential speeds have dropped massively).
Just thought I'd share. Hopefully formatting will fix this, otherwise it isn't much better than spindles. Can't wait for the new drive!
