Move to Canada.

Anyway, OCZ has the best SSD controller right now I believe.  Their drives are incredibly fast.

The controller is so important because, if they are able to efficiently allocate and remap clusters during writes, performance improves.

It's kind of like accessing an array of pointers.  Everything has to get remapped via the SSD controller.  The controller is what is responsible for dereferencing the pointers.

@Myndy: Did you see what I said? Cmd+Tab to the app you want and then Cmd+Backtick to the window you want.

A good MODERN file system like ZFS might make a huge performance difference. You probably wouldn't need an SSD at all as ZFS is known to do some very intelligent caching and trickery.

Too bad we're still using 20 year old file systems ...

I don't even find it that funny, because I'm working on it. I only memorized one phrase: "qoSlij DatIvjaj", or "happy birthday".

Why are you learning Klingon?

Weren't you paying attention?  Because he's almost Canadian.
