It seems like you're confirming that a solid-state drive should perform similarly regardless of the brand or model.
In theory, it's a pretty cool idea, and could be plausible. Boot up PC, wait to copy the entire OS from a hard drive to a ramdisk, and then boot from ramdisk. Of course, it's too unreliable and boot times are extremely slow, so you might as well just buy an SSD. I don't really see a need for speeds (heh) faster than an SSD, and either way, you're getting less storage for the price if you're using a ramdisk.
