said by ztmike: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.
Overrated? Seriously?? You realize the hard drive is the biggest bottleneck of a computer right?
