Good for a HDD replacement
- Pros: It's an SSD... Much faster read performance than a mechanical drive. Decent price for an SSD of this capacity. Came with adapter rails to mount in 3.5" bay.
- Cons: Write performance seems about hte same as a mechanical 2.5" drive. Supplied software to clone from old drive to this new one is clunky, but it works.
- Other Thoughts: I originally built a network management workstation with an Intel Atom 330 with 1 GB RAM and one of these drives running XP. The preformance has been great! I built another one as an HTPC, with a Zotac nVidia Ion mobo, running the Atom 330 processor and 2GB RAM. The OS is Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit. Boots to the desktop in under 60 seconds! I'm considering getting another 2 and running as RAID 0 system drive on my desktop PC. That should fly!
Great, Cheap SSD Solution!
- Pros: Silent, low power consumption, easy to install. Package came with 3.5" slot conversion brackets.
- Cons: The drive isn't as fast as I thought it would be. I'm running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, and I was expecting a boot time of literally seconds after the BIOS POST. For the most part, it seems to be a little faster than normal HDD solutions, but not the blazing speed I had expected from even a cheap SSD.
- Other Thoughts: I have put this into a HTPC. I decided on a SSD because of it's low power consumption & silent operation. I chose this drive because of it's price to size ratio. I highly recommend this drive for those of you on the fence about getting an SSD, especially if you're looking to utilize it in a HTPC environment as I am.

- Pros: Boot up W2k3 server in half the time of a Velociraptor.
Reads at 101MB/s
Writes at 80MB/s
- Cons: After running Tversity for one hour computer started to stutter. It was updating my library of 85000 songs. I'm guessing a data base file on a SSD is not a good thing. I then moved Tversity on another drive and the stuttering problem was solved. Only bad thing is the reads went to 60MB/s and writes were 25MB/s. The data base writing must of trash the drive. Went ahead and move mail servers data files off the drive and turned of Indexing. Still didn't help reads and writes. Without TRim this happens to all SSD drives.
- Other Thoughts: Solution to drive slowing. Loaded up Acronis TI Home 2010 and imaged SSD to a spare drive. Used the drive erase program and wrote 0's to the entire drive. Once done I put the image back on the drive. Booted up W2k3 and ran some benchmarks on the drive again.
