Bah - 20GB SSDs on the roadmap......never going to get some small cheap swap drives if they carry on making new drives in small capacities
But 800GB drives also on the roadmap......wouldn't mind 8 of those in a RAID10 array

The whole point of the 20G drives is that they're designed for use in mSATA (which I believe is mechnically identical to miniPCIe) connectors to power SRT, which is basically smart caching of regularly used files iirc, but there's no reason those drives couldn't be used as a 20GB flash swap file.
Then again, you could also just get a cheap 16GB USB flash drive and use that for swap. Once USB3 drives start becoming commonplace that'd be as good a way as any to do it...
