The one I recall was also a) not that large, and b) eye wateringly expensive though.
I suspect such things exist for those that need the performance and will pay for them.

Sounds like Fusion-IO, perhaps?  By far the fastest but most expensive per/GB that I've heard of, anyhow.

"IBM’s project Quicksilver, based on Fusion-io technology, showed that solid-state technology in 2008 could deliver the fastest performance of its time: 1 million IOPS."
