It's still true; RAID controllers don't currently pass through TRIM commands to the drives. But I've read some articles trying that and said that it isn't as bad as it would seem, that the latest drives are more resilient to performance degradation. I'll try and find some of the articles later.
Once you price it out though it's almost the same thing, at least for the 64GB drives and the 120ish GB drives.
