Well, great, now we can have a NAND MLC SSD that fails how quickly? Isn't that the point SSDs use predominantly single level cells? This one is cheap for a reason...

people compare write and read speeds, but where ssd's really shine is in random access time write/read, even the slowest ssd demolishes the best hd out there. 

90% of what an average computer does is random write/read.

If these new drives are so cheap, then putting them in raid0 w/sata2 or the new sata3, no harddrive can compete.

As for write wear recient tests have shone that the new ssd's produced in the last year would have to be written to 24/7 for over 40 years before write wear takes its toll, compare that to a hd that can barely last 2 3 years.

hd is dead!!

longlive SSD!!

Think of ALL Losey Parts HDD has, Motors, Gear to wibble 'd wobbler, fantastic software needs to snip & crummy performance whole in HOT, Noisy, mess.

You've seen SSD Card in theINQ & Register, it really couldn't be much cheaper in materials list & memory is printed by photo process, similar to cpu. with advanced SSD technology main Royaly cost..
There is little reason to use anything except SSD, except in todays cost. 

SSD Cost is unnaturally inflated due to newness & establishing lines. Yet, actual cost of manufacture must be cheap as chippers in Class A Bar. Wowie.
These are particularly good as C Drive & in preliminarly races, SSD looks like it can become Speedie Gonzales of Today. Some Pundits & Manufacturers even have had 40X R/W SSD Machines on Display.SO go figure.
