Recently when i was shopping for my i7-2600K and mobo, i saw this SSD
At first glance this is not your ordinary SSD as this SSD from OCZ named the Revo Drive uses PCI-express as it's transfer interface.

120GB-480GB Max Performance
* Read: Up to 540 MB/s
* Write: Up to 480 MB/s
* Sustained Write: Up to 400 MB/s
* Random Write 4KB (Aligned): 75,000 IOPS
Mid Valley, 120GB, RM 1.2k
nego-ed with the sales person, cheapest rm1130.
So, the question is, worth the buy?
Well i've decided not to buy JUST YET as i'm still surveying other SSDs as well.
Opinions guys?
