I am using OCZ 30GB SATA SSD MLC (OCZSSD2-1SLD30G) - works fine.
In general, any standard 2.5" size SATA SSD will work.
No need to buy a very fast one, since anyway the speed is limited by IDE interface.

I did an odd turn and discarded those expensive SSD disks and bought CompactFlash SATA adapter + 8GB fast CF card.

CF card 8GB

the problem will be the card's durability: Win Server is going to bomb the card like hell and wear the card out. Have to use RAM disks and no page file..

Oh yes, system is installed and RAM disk is in use.
This CF-SSD wasn't so good idea. performance is a bit poor because Win reads/writes so violantly and my 133x (udma4) can't handle it so good.
Well, ramdisk (256MB) is the answer.
wonder how would 600x card perform..

Kingston has a couple of new MLC-drives with 64 and 128 GB size at very low prices: SNV125-S2/64GB for instance that seems to work very well.

KingSpec SSD are working fine, and you can buy them from eBay (relatively not expensive).
