Yes (usually)

Yes , a regular SSD can go up to 300 mb/s.

My SSD drive crapped out and I lost 4GB of data, so dont give me that “reliability” line of crap!!!

No body should switch to SS because of sounds their HD makes..
For Computer enthusiasts, bench-markers, and gamers, SPEED is everything. Without the delay of physical moving parts, solid-state is a much more efficient way to go.
SS drives are good for loading OS, or for storing data that you have high value for (pictures, documents, videos) without the worry of a moving part malfunctioning and corrupting data.
So unless your a gamer, OC’er, or using SS for backup, this is irrelevant for you.

gay thing is they are actually cheaper to manufacture than hard drives. only reason why it costs so much is because they are better than disk drives.

They’re 1/4th the price they were a year and a half ago, wait another year and a half and they’ll probobly be half the price or less than they are now =0

Pretty unneccesary for a desktop, i mean, you wont hear anything since the desktop itself is under the speakers, so you basically dont hear anything, HDD drives works as fine, aint faster, but still works!
Im going with HDD ON DESKTOPS! Not for laptops, then this is huge

does anyone know when the prices of SSD’s will come down?
April 27th, 2010 at 1:22 pm
also corrupts the drive

I’m going to put in 2 of these in raid 0. Store my OS, games, etc. Then use a 500gb HD to back it up

Actually corsair has faster versions, I ordered a Crucial 128gb, I plan on replacing a 3x raptor 74gb raid 0 setup with this SSD, when the price drops on these SSD’s I plan on replaces all my platter drives, and have one large redundant platter drive for all my file stores….I figure in 5 years platter drive will only be used as storage devices, in 10 years they will probably be extinct

That’s what I’m planning to do, buy something like a 30gb SSD and put the OS in it while a conventional HDD for all the games in the world. When they do go down in prices and improve, I’ll buy a bigger 1 for the rest but the prices now and the sizes don’t justify a purchase.

it slows it down

this guy is insanely hot. i hope he doesn’t go catch some of the wrong ssd’s hey.

100 YEAR LIFE? I dont want some weirdo looking at my hard earned porn 100 years from now!!!

dont defrag a SSD as it slows it down
