SUPER TALENT FTM30GK25H 2.5" 30GB SATA II Internal Solid state disk (SSD) - Retail

Took the plunge

Reviewed By: the forgotten on 8/17/2008

Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Fast write/read speeds
Low Power Consumption (you can just set it to turn off after 1 min. of non usage)
Silent - My laptop is absolutely noiseless for the first 15 min of operation..then my cpu fan kicks in -_-

Cons: expensive...ssds have yet to mature and i paid dearly for 30 GB...(the actual value comes out to be 28.1GB...a little bit better than the convention loss for a platter based hd)

Other Thoughts: ...i bring my laptop to school every day...and naturally my backpack gets pretty beat up ... so its nice not having to worry about how you are handing your laptop...i kinda am in the habit of tossing it onto my bed now =)

newegg rocks..as usual
