I'm upgrading a Dell P4 2.53Ghz to use a 20" LCD (1600x1200 res). This ASUS 6200 over the 'egg looks good (checked the stickies here and charts over at Tech ARP ): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121542 Yay? Nay? Other recommendations? 3D performance isn't a big concern (onl...

Is there any benefit with these without Vista? Last I heard there wasn't.

I got one of these for my laptop (HP dv6000t) a few weeks ago. I didn't take any temperature readings, though -- my left knee no longer being uncomfortable from the exhaust heat was reason enough for me to keep it.

Wasn't it far cheaper?

It was $499. Then it got bumped up to $519. Then taken off the site. Now I see why Newegg censors prices in customer reviews. Dell's 32GB SSD (SanDisk I think) is "only" $549.

It looks like Newegg just got in a few 1.8" Samsung SSDs (4GB, 8GB, and 16GB). Did you get the 1.8" or the 2.5"? You'll have to let us know how they perform.

It's another step in the right direction.

I got one of those off ebay. 1$ + 2$ shipping. For two cards. I haven't used it yet (going to use it for my new build--whenever that is) but I don't think you need any special drivers or anything. It's just pin adapters (and some cool LED:s on mine). The one thing would be wear levelling. Since it'...

What is this tool and where does one get it? (I took a quick look at the Sandisk site and didn't see any driver that looked like your description.) Try googling for "atcfwchg". (DISCLAIMER: I have no experience using it. Do not blame me if you kill your computer and/or CF.) Edit: Found this while l...

Thanks for the welcome. :D And yes, there have been a number of these adapters floating around for a while. From my reading, your chances using one to boot from a CF card (for Windows anyway) were kinda low... and required using an unsupported tool from SanDisk to put the CF card in "fixed disk" mod...

I'm waiting for some benchies, but maybe this could tide some of us over until the SSD flood.
