Datanodes using SSD

Has anyone had any experience building high-performance datanodes using SSD for storage?  Any gotchas or notes to contribute?  We were talking out a crazy idea for some stupid fast hadoop nodes using SSD storage last night and I wanted to see if anyone had done something like this yet.

Thanks!

FB chat runs on it, and also some HBase installations.
