Anyway... databases are always(?) IO bound. I'd try to figure out how to make a bigger hose (or more hoses) between the spindles and the mobo.

What I keep waiting for is the drives with flash memory built-in to mature. I would love to get reliable writes that use the drive's cache for instant fsyncs, instead of right now where you have to push all that to the controller level.
