Yes perhaps, but I also do alot of audio recording in my spare time. So faster read/write times will give me almost no latency when laying down tracks even at sample rates of up to 192khz. And not only that but it's also about reliability. HDDs have a short life expectancy when compared to an SSD. If spending the extra bit of cash to get several more years out of my drive than it seems a good investment to me. And besides, who wants to wait around waiting with stupid load screens anyways. Not this guy.

It really is the future for internal hard drives though. Once we see capacities go up and prices come down then everyone is going to start snagging these up.
