We're past the knee you in the balls prices for SSDs but we're still in the prick you with needles then rub 99% alcohol on your balls price territory.

I'm waiting for the gently squeeze you in the balls pricepoint for SSDs.

Plus the technology is still improving everyday with so many competing implementations and SSD processors fighting for the crown. It'll only get better with another year. Capacities will probably do a few leaps as well and that's important. I learned the hard way when I was an early adopter for a bunch of crappy 34GB gen1 Raptors for RAID.

This is for an already high-powered desktop of course, for laptops though, this is almost a no-brainer, especially for breathing life back into old ones.
