Blazing Speeds!!

The cost of these drives has just dropped so I decided to go for one. I have done plenty of research and checked out the reviews of all SSD's and this one really stands out, check out www.tomshardware.com. Installed the drive and OS without any issues on an IBM T61. Win XP now boots in 9 seconds!! Compared to a previous time of about 35 - 45 seconds. I am very happy so far!

I bought this drive with the intention to put in my home system (with 3,5" adapter ofcourse) due to absent noise, but couldn't resist putting it in my notebook.
Wow... This thing is incredible. Booting of my OS now takes less than 15 seconds!
The seek time i amazing. Just look at the results of the test:

atlas@u235:~/Desktop$ sudo ./seeker /dev/sda1
Seeker v2.0, 2007-01-15, http://www.linuxinsight.com/how_fast_is_your_disk.html
Benchmarking /dev/sda1 [55278MB], wait 30 seconds..............................
Results: 1815 seeks/second, 0.55 ms random access time

No more noise and heating up, my notebook is now lighting fast and as quiet as the fans cooling the system.
