Micron introduced a SSD drive that supposedly hit a data transfer rate around 800 MB/s, which can be increased to 1GB/s. This is of course not done through sata II interface but rather PCIe interface, because sata II is only capable of transferring data of 300Mb/s. This speed was attained by attaching the SSD to the computer through PCIe connections and the drives have “flash data management enhancements".
To put the speed into perspective note that the fatest notebook hard drives can write at approximately 70 MB/s, while their desktop cousins achieve around 100MB/s. Velociraptor which is considered the fastest desktop hard drive performs around 122 MB/s. Yes, your math is correct; Micron claims to run at 8x the speed of the current fastest hard drive!
Finally we have come to a point where our hard drives do not need to be the slowest parts on our PCs. The question remains though, can the Motherboards keep up? :)
