Anyone using Mercury Accelsior E2 SDD?

Is anyone using Mercury Accelsior E2 SDD as a system drive in their Mac Pro with Pro Tools? My load time for PT 11HD seems to be getting longer and longer and I'm wondering if the PCIe SSD card is reliable enough to use. I don't think any were on sale for Black Friday. Ha! But I missed looking then anyway. I would have searched for this but "Search Avid.Com" is always disappointing.

I've been using one for a year with out problems with a 2009 mac pro running pt 10 and now 11.2 but just yesterday my hdx card seems to have gone south and I'm not sure I have time to trouble shoot it before break. I'm getting -55 error on boot of PT. I don't think this issue is related to the ssd drive. I'm tempted to try the new 11.3 version but that seems to be for yosemite users and I'm still running 10.8.4. Anyone heard of -55 errors? Its not coming up on Google searches at all.

Got one a couple days ago for my OS HD (and Pro Tools). It's smokin' fast. Got a hard drive bay SSD too (PT drive) and it's very fast. All in all, Pro TOols went from being a difficult, grumpy, cranky old man to an olympic champion overnight.

You'll be happy.

My rig is peachy again. It was Cable issues and prefs that needed tossing. The SSD drive is still lovely and speedy.. :) I'd highly recommend the owc mecury accelsior. Ssd.
