I’m eyeing the currently available Intel SATA SSD for a new Mac Pro tower. It’s “only” 32 GB, but offers seek times in the microseconds, 250 MB/s reads and 170 MB/s writes. Plus no noise and low power consumption - it’ll be the spot for OS, swap file, and critical apps. A bit expensive at $700 or so, I’d like to see pricing on these Toshibas. I bet the 512 GB model costs a pretty penny!

BTW, there’s no need for “boot from flash”, these look like regular hard drives to the OS.
