Nah. A couple of years back, I ran a raid0 w/ 2 maxtor 7200 w/ 2meg cache. The improvement was quite noticable to the naked eye. The file loading was really excellent. I think anand is fishing for something controversial, and using tests that don't really measure throughput to stir something up... I guess there really isn't much in terms of new HW worth talking about lately.
