SSD in Desktop
Anyone else using a SSD in their desktop? I’ve recently moved my desktop boot hard drive over to a 1.8in 64GB SSD (adapted to ATA unfortunately from ZIF since hard to go SATA to ZIF) very very fast bootup times, quick movement, low stickyness factor.
I keep a second SATA drive in there for actual data/application storage. Biggest issue so far is I can’t put my Outlook OST with Cached exchange mode on the SSD which would be a huge improvement from regular disk. Seems to be a bug on Cached OST’s on SSD’s that hasn’t been fixed yet, can’t imagine what people that use laptops and travel do.
How have others experiences gone with it?
very cool.
how much the fuck did that cost?

Had a spare SSD out of a laptop I moved in, so didn’t cost anything really, outside of a adapter, which is sub $30.
Low stickiness factor?
I have my pagefile on a CompactFlash card plugged into a spare IDE socket on my motherboard, and I’ve also noticed a nice reduction in disk thrashing as a result.

Stickyness factor = The speed at which the OS responds to you clicking on items, ie responsiveness to your motion.
I’m looking at a laptop with a SSD drive. I think I’m gonna let it settle down before I bite at a SSD.
