    Nice review but it would have been nice to compare two raid vertex 2 SSDs versus two raid vertex 3 SSDs.

    Nice review but it would have been nice to compare two raid vertex 2 SSDs versus two raid vertex 3 SSDs.

     
    I sure wish I had the $$$ for that 
    Comparing the Vertex 2 RAID 0 vs a single Vertex 3, the prices are about $250 vs $300, respectively.
    But there's the added peace of mind in not having a RAID array where if a single drive dumps you lose everything, and TRIM is in effect (though with recent FW the GC is as good as TRIM).
    That and having the ability to add a 2nd V3 later on at a lower price, and the upgrade to me is worth the $50 premium.
