When the Intel X25 SSDs first came out, IMVU bought them for every engineer in the company. From a cold boot, Visual Studio starts in half a second. Subversion got dramatically faster. Boot times are a fraction of what they were before.
Some of my computers are cpu-bound on disk operations now.
If you run an engineering team, make the investment.
