Not so, "Big Boy"The read and write speeds of SSD's are overrated. What matters a lot more in real world use is the access times.
Pretty much ANY SSD has an access speeds 100 times that of a spinning hard drive, and that's where the real payoff is.
Only if you're copying super large files might you start to see the benefit of crazy fast read/write speeds. And even then, only if you're copying that super large file from and equally fast drive (otherwise the source drive will be the bottleneck).
Have you ever heard of "virtual memory" and "paging"?
The speeds shown above are aligned to today's ultra, low-cost SATA 3.0 SSDs and not PCMCIA SSDs.
The internal SATA SSDs with 250GB capacity are now retailed for less the $40. (Check NewEgg, et al.)
The amount of swapping a system will perform depends on the amount of AVAILABLE MEMORY.
AVAILABLE MEMORY::= FREE + CACHED MEMORY
It is not only for "large files".
And, if you use, for example, a Windows VM (to access corporate and educational programs not available under MacOS), then you are going to swap like crazy, when you only have 8GB of memory.
No offense dude. I think you need to be (re)educated on virtual memory.
