Thanks for the link C ..........

can't quite swing the big daddy :ohcrap:

Figured Id at least bring it to your attention.

Also, about the OCZs, they are actually 60gb drives. The firmware they ship with keeps too much space to itself. There is suppost to be a firmware soon to increase the space back to 60Gb.

Didn't know that ....

Thanks for the tip

I'm not all that impressed by ssd's pricevsperformance myself. As far as programs loading and snappyness in the os, os loading screen and games loading, my 6 raptor raid on areca raid card smokes a couple of intel's in raid. Purely SOTP feelings.

That should totally beast PCM05 Supes .............. :thumbsup:

I am not into the RIAD scene myself.... I just like one SSD .... for boot sector

with 80 gigs though I will chuck a few games on it for the better load times

SSD'd seems to be the best solution for us one drive guys ............

I linked up a dude who RIADed like 30 of these things and ripped DVD faster than the case of the DVD hit the ground trowing out a two story window ......... LOL

These things are the future of storage, look to the forth quarter of this year we should see an increase in capacity and profomance that won't scale with mechanical drives quite yet, but might make you say

Hmmmm .............
