Perfectly acceptable. Some will still go for the fastest drive, but for 99.9% of us there is no difference in side by side performance.

Not true. The fastest SSD's will load a game about 2 seconds faster than the sata versions. This is critical if you are someone important like me who doesn't have 2 seconds of my time to wait around for a game to load that I will end up playing for hours anyway to the point of brain fatigue and drooling.
