Yes it does.  I should have mentioned that the one thing that drove me
to buy the SSD was how poorly my CF card handled multiple simultaneous
requests.  For example, when I open my email client it syncs all the
folders with the IMAP server in parallel.  This was painfully slow on
the CF card which is designed to read or write a single file at a
time.  Switching to the SSD made a significant improvement in parallel
operations.
