QUOTE(besiegetank @ Jul 23 2010, 04:55 PM) Seriously how come the price for HDD can drop so fast but I don't see the same trend for SSD. I'm thinking to buy one for my gaming setup but now it still over my budget. Anyone know any 'insider' information about SSD price dropping in the future? growing market of HDD. but i think SSD still takes time, since only enthusiast aiming for them. which SSD model bro aiming? |

think so, e-sata not a popular interface compared to USB.
also not all motherboard will have e-sata connection.  |

QUOTE(donpapachino @ Jul 24 2010, 04:36 AM) if im not mistaken, for ssd you need to allocate ~20% free space, so that the drive wont suffer from performance degradation. hey, is that means if i have an 80GB SSD, to avoid performance hit,so if 80gb less 20% free space, actual can use until 64gb only, before taking a performance hit. then i can only format 64GB to use, then the other 16GB leave it unformat? |
