Re: Upgraded :) said by Margolis:said by Archivis:I thought boot times would have been faster than 45 seconds. Hell, my current PC boots up in less than that on a SATA drive. considering it took 3 minutes which is way too long for a hd there has to be another problem. My core 2 duo boots an old well used and bloated vista 64 from a hd in 45 seconds. My i7 boots win 7 from an intel ssd in 15 seconds. That might be worth the price of ssd ....If I turned my computer off. The speed I could care less as its fast enough for what I do and the boot times are also worthless as I keep my computer on and logged into the only account...mine.
>>SSDs are overrated, and overpriced.
But you guys go ahead and buy'em up! I need those prices to come down before I jump ship. |

Yes, but if you read what I said the speed is fine for what I do and currently the price point per GB is not worth the extra seconds in improvement.
Once the price comes down to current harddrive levels then yea. |
