Configuring, Upgrading A 6 Core for retouching

[Honumaui]

What are the reasons none of you have mentioned going the route of pcie SSD-Cards? such as those from OCZ like the revo or p84/ p88 ranging from 265gb to 1T space on the card and amazing sustained writes.

From what I can read, they are potentially faster without all the striping/raid/parity concerns.

I realize they may not be yet ready for mac osx but they will be soon.

Then there are also the new SATAIII-6gb/s ssd from Crucial. Wouldn't those, with appropriate internal or esata controller, just improve upon the same layout as described in the posts above?

not out for mac and crucial no trim that cuts out both the options ?

just cause you can do something does not make it the best choice


1TB PCI solution is $4000 ?
not saying they dont have a place ? but for many its not the best solution
