May I ask why you have chosen a drive with such a high speed and matching cost?

We have some years of experience with using SSDs for search at work and it is 
our experience that commodity SSDs performs very well (one test showed 
something like 80% of RAM speed, YMMW). It seems to me that more servers with 
commodity SSDs could very well be cheaper and give better throughput than the 
beast(s) you're using. Are you trying to minimize latency "at all cost"?
