Load times have decreased between maps in COD BO for sure but don't have any hard numbers.

Nice guide! I don't really see the use for this unless someone is just hell bent on using a HDD.

Someone like me? :) Its a lot cheaper to speed up an old Raptor that I already own with a small benching SSD that I already own (both picked up at bro deals) than purchasing a new 300 Gb SSD. To me it makes sense, to others with deeper pockets maybe not so much.

No Z58 board :blink:

I got my mitts on a couple of old sata 2 drives I will try this out when I review the M4gene

Bizzare..

Just ran this and its so backwards. Before I even plugged in the SSD I was getting a SSD like perofrmance from my 150GB raptor. Now that I added an SSD for caching, it dropped to what Vrap should have been getting in the first place :S

Actually WAY WAY worse.. .5K speeds are breaking 800KBps. :S
