SSD write speeds are usually below spinning disk

Has anyone built their own 10GigE probe? I'm imagining just doing the same thing
I've done for 1GigE: NICs from Intel, Cory Satten's Gulp, the fastest storage
array I can afford, and a SPAN port.

I've vaguely thought of making the primary storage SSD, to which Gulp writes,
then buying slow disk and using a cron job to copy files off SSD as fast as
possible.  But I haven't actually tried this yet.

And I'm imagining that Cace will deliver a 10GigE version of TurboCap at some point.

Have any tips for me?
