We got a couple of those in for testing purposes; when opportunity
presents itself, I'll have to check to see if they are any more honest
about commits than traditional IDE drives.

If they still "lie" the same way IDE drives do, it is entirely
possible that they are NOT nearly as impressive as you presently
imagine.  It's not much good if they're "way fast" if you can't trust
them to actually store data when they claim it is stored...
