Subject: -E stride and stripe-width necessary for best performace of SSDs?

Hi,

* I want to optimize ext4 on my SSD (Intel 320 Series 160 GB).
* There are some sites recommending the use of the -E stride and -E 
  stripe-width paramaters, like
  http://searchenterpriselinux.techtarget.com/tip/Optimizing-Linux-for-SSD-usage
* I know these parameters are useful for RAIDs, but I don't think that 
  they have any advantages for SSDs.

Can anybody with deeper ext4 knowledge confirm if I'm right?

Best regards,
Werner
