That's no longer true. You can't get more than 5-10MB/s from

problem for the comparable priced/sized SSD drive.
Can you point me at a vendor with SSDs of such characteristics?

Kingston CF Elite, 20 / 25 MBps write / read
Kingston CF Ultimate, 40 / 45 MBps write / read

SanDisk Extreme III CF, 20 MBps
SanDisk Extreme IV CF, 45 MBps

Sony CF 300X, 45 MBps

These are just a few of those available from my regular supplier.

These are all "normal" CompactFlash cards, for which the widely
available size seems to be 16 GB max, right? I was thinking about
something more like this:

or this: http://www.mtron.net/English/Product/pc_msd1000.asp

Did you (or anyone) deploy CF drives for production servers?
