Thanks for answering. The reason I ask is that Toms did a comparison of SSD, hybrid and the normal HDD but saw only minimal improvements with the SSD and hybrid drives (actually, the hybrid and SSD both reduced load times by the same amount). I forgot they use SATA 2 so I guess that can't help SSD performance.

You need SSD in RAID to really need SATA 3... SATA 2 transfer rate is 300 MB/s (no single SSD reached that yet).
