|

Finally ordered my 90GB Vertex 2E. Can't wait to get my OS (and perhaps a game or two) installed on a fast solid state drive. Weee....
(I didn't get Vertex 3 simply because of limited funds).

Yep, just make sure to do it properly (AHCI enabled, MS's driver instead of Intel's, disable all the pointless crap)

It's even faster than I expected. And such a tiny drive, and it weighs nothing. I've checked every Win7+SSD-optimisation guide I could find on the net and disabled tons of useless crap. And DAAAAMN is it a joy to simply boot Windows. It's like 10 seconds or something (with No GUI on Boot etc.)

I recently bought a 90gb vertex 2 and it's damn fast. Also had the same first impressions (weights nothing, the silence is also very nice)... I'll certainly switch all drives to SSD in the future (when prices go down and capacity up).

*envy*
I'm still waiting for the price to come down a little and I'll snag a decent one for my OS drive.

See, that's where you're making your mistake. You don't get an SSD because you transfer large files to and from it faster

Is it?
Anyway, I always was a 2 drives guy. 
All my precious stuff is on both drives, that way only a major system failure will cause me any trouble.

still needs to dial up  
Anyway... i prefer to use 3 drives. 1 for OS off course.. .1 for storage and a 200gb drive just for downloading with Sabnzbd... the automatic extraction goes then again to my storage. I just love the speed i get then.

Fixed
Anyway... do you manage with only 24ogb for OS,apps and games? I think i need at least 300gb if i dont want to uninstall every month just to install some new games.
