Are there any SSD's that plug into a PCI slot? That would be very

I think what you're asking is more about what SATA PCI
controllers/adapters are available which will work in your
(PowerPC?)
Mac, no?
No, I mean a solid state drive that plugs directly into a PCI slot.
Here is the closest I could semi-quickly find. It is for 2.5" pata
(not sata). There may be a sata version, but most likely it will be
PCIe, not regular pci.

You attach an old laptop HD onto this card, then plug the card into
a pci slot. It also includes a ata/133 connector so you can plug in
2 large ata drives into it. Sonnet's price is $70.

Thats interesting, it only supports the G4 MDD and up. The slots are
pretty much the same as in a DA, Quicksilver, GE, Sawtooth, and
Yosemite, right?
Re read the specs.
Mac Compatibility
Power Mac G4 (all models except Cube and Mirrored Drive Doors)
Power Mac G5 (with PCI or PCI-X slots)
Mac OS® X Version 10.5, 10.4, or 10.3
Don't know why it does not support the MDD
