The failure rate is also significantly lower than for rotating drives. I'd like such a mass storage system just for the overall quiet, no drive whirring and less need for fans in the box.

I would have to disagree with you a little Rich. While yes, SSD is going to lead the market soon, SAS is still better/faster. While I can't speak from experience, from what I've read it's much faster. When I build my new unbeatable, amazing, beatiful, ridiculously expensive computer, I'll pop a couple of Seagate's 450GB 15000 RPM SAS drives that come out in June in there and the debate will begin...

Today they could use an EEPROM, when MS came out with a new OS, they could either sell you a new chip or have the old one reprogrammed. Or they may figure out a way to sell you a new disk to reprogram it yourself. Of course this would put McAfee and Norton out of business. Did you ever check into that solid state cooling device for the cpu, it has no moving parts, it works on the same principal as an RV refridgerator.
