P.S. Some dude installed Windows 7 using core i7 and two of these ssd's in raid 0 under 15 seconds.

The SSD stats are amazing:

800x faster at finding files than a 10,000 rpm SATA WD Raptor WD740ADFD
125x faster at serving files than a WD Raptor.

The HyperDrive5 is the fastest Internal Hard Disk in the World from a seek time perspective.

It has less than 10 microseconds read access time and less than 10 microseconds write access time.

It does not - as the best Flash SSDs claim - offer... 'RAM-like performance.'

It offers RAM performance.

If that doesn't solve your IO bottleneck nothing will!
