Best SSD for database storage

Partially will depend on the size of the database(s)....also might want to consider if it's a basically static DB, if it's being changed and updated often then might want to consider keeping it on a mechanical drive as writes are the bane of an SSD. If not overly large 2-4 GB, I generally keep them on a mechanical drive and load them into a RAMDisk for daily usage, access is even faster than a SSD (just keep in mind saving to harddisk on a regular basis if making lots of updates. For the SSD's, both the Phoenix and the Snipers are very good, I like the Snipers and have been running a pair of 120's in RAID 0 for months now.
