Pretty damn fast, but definitely not cost effective. Video is kinda cheesy too

They actually recommend that you do not defrag a SSD hard drive. There is no need to.

Yeah because Flash Drives/SSD drives have a limited number of writes, the more you write, the faster it will die. Defragging i guess would be kind of pointless and would needlessly use up some writes.

And until this problem is solved, fuck SSDs. I don't care how fast they are, I'm not buying a drive that is guaranteed to fail by its design nature.

It was something where the data just didn't get fragmented. Nothing to do with making writes to the drive. It is something like a million writes before it can fail. I am happy with my velciraptors in RAID 0 anyways.
