| That's quite cheap, shame about the size - the one I used to have was 120Gb and cost waaay more than that.
It got filled up ultra quick though. I had problems using mine for the OS and programs with a conventional platter drive or two for storage. Lots of crashes and lock ups, seems my set up didn't like the two technologies trying to work together or maybe I'd not set it up right - who knows.
I'd be wary about doing the same again and would probably want a bigger drive to go back to ssd, big ones are still not cheap I believe. | |

| They are returnes which is why their cheap has you know i have not been a fan in the past but ssds are moving on now and i use one for my os with hard drives for storage i have also moved a lot of programs to one off them to save space on the ssd
its working fine and has done for a year now only thing is it did boot in around 10-15 sec but now its more like 25 not sure what happened

| Of course if you have a spare monkey then you can bag a 1Tb SSD for 'only' £515
