If shopping for an SSD at least consider the OCZ Vertex. I've been running one in my Santa Rosa MBP for 7 months with no issues and excellent performance.

See (http://blog.gtuhl.com/2009/03/26/ocz-vertex-ssd-in-a-17-sant...) for install and before/after xbench runs.

I have an OCZ Vertex in my MBP. Great performance, but has definitely gotten slower over time. The folks at OCZ have just released the non-beta 1.4 firmware release that has better garbage collection.

I think the Vertex is the one I put in my desktop machine. Absolutely love it. Need to upgrade my MBP to an SSD in the near future.
