  1. Good read, I recommend a SSD to anyone if you have the money, the pc loads quite fast, I can be on bad company within 60 seconds of turning my pc on. Currently have a 60GB OCZ looking to get a bigger one in the near future.

  2. This drive is superb, windows 7 boots in about 15 seconds here with it.
