I looked through that distributor page already and none of the ones I visited 
listed the IOPS SSD's- they all listed DRAM and other memory from STEC- but not 
the SSD's.

I'm not looking to get the same number of IOPS out of 15k RPM drives. I'm 
looking for an appropriate number of IOPS for my environment- that is to say- 
twice what I'm currently getting. That would be 6k-10k IOPS. If I can do that 
with four Intel drives for 1/10th of what a pair of ZEUS SSD's are going to 
cost me- then that would seem to make a lot more sense. It would also be nice 
to be able to have a couple of spares on hand- just in case a mirror fails. 
That's a lot harder when the drives areas expensive as the ZEUS.

Who else, besides STEC, is making write optimized drives and what kind of IOP 
performance can be expected?
