Patriot 64Gb WARP SSD drive?
Published (2009-12-11 06:40:00)
I sure hope that series doesnt have big problems... Cuz I just got a Patriot Warp 32GB... been running it hard since I got it, up 24/7 for the last day or so and no noticable problems.. It installed fine and haven't seen any problems yet, we'll see I guess.. i got a 30 day return policy from newegg so if it's gonna i hope it fails within that... but it'll probably be on the 31st day.

USB 3.0 vs Sata II
Published (2009-12-13 16:50:00)
The access time and CPU overhead for USB is far higher than SATA (in addition to not supporting AHCI, NCQ, etc). For storage it won't make a huge difference but you wouldn't want to run your OS off of one I don't think.

Finally made the jump to SSD

Another question ... is TRIM already enabled by default in Windows 7? If so, I do not need to ever perform the Garbage Collection manually correct?

Adding drives on 1 sata...
Published (2009-12-12 17:26:00)
How many drives can you put on 1 Sata? thanks for the info....... The reason I am asking I only have 5 sata plugins on my motherboard and with the arrival of another video card I dont have any room for a raid control card. I am looking to run 6 hd and 2 roms. If I have to I can run 4 hd and 2 roms. I have seen some people run 1 drive on a sata and I have seen people run 4 drives on 1 sata just seeing if that can be done since I am going to...

QUOTE (OCFreak @ Dec 16 2009, 10:34 AM) Thanks for the info, guys! Any opinions on doing a dual boot with 7/Ubuntu? Do I format the drive the same way I would a disk? Yes you do! Just install Windows 7, keeping a partition for Ubuntu, and then install Ubuntu. I dual-boot Vista/Ubuntu on mine and it works flawlessly.

QUOTE (CheeseMan42 @ Dec 15 2009, 08:30 PM) Maybe they should have put as much effort into firmware development and testing as they did into engineering the mechanical parts. It just makes sense! It's not a question of not putting the effort in. It's a disc so the outter tracks are going to be larger, nothing you can do about it Longer track = the head doesn't have to move = faster Short track = the...

Data Recovery?
Published (2009-12-08 14:14:00)
I've had this problem before. The drive lost power while it was writing to the drive, it wiped all the data on the board of the drive (i just happened to have some software from texas instruments ) So in a nutshell, the drive forgets what it is. the best thing you can do is do a board swap as paulktreg said. just remove the board form the new drive and toss it on your old one. hope this helps

It has a great performance, but the power consumption is rather deceiving. It uses 1.5W under load, according to this guy (It's the only information I could find). The Intel X25-M uses 150mW under load, which is in fact the idle power consumption of the Crucial drive. Although the difference in battery life will be minimal. Most of the power consumption comes from the screen and ...

QUOTE (Jump4h @ Dec 13 2009, 01:11 PM) Am I reading this right? USB 3.0 has a transfer rate of about 3.2 Gbps, while the SATAII has 3.0Gbps. Does this mean it would be faster buying a usb 3.0 hdd enclosure and running a OS of that? What about latency times? USB 2.0 was no good in that aspect, got to see how much that improved.

15k drives arent going to give you much more performance over a good 7200 drive. id say stick with your 1.5tb but, if you must get the 15k drive, then putting your 4830's in 8x crossfire isnt going to make a single bit of difference as opposed to x16 crossfire
