AntiVirus? which one you used.
I find that those AV products with firewall really kills off whatever advantage you have for boot time on a SSD. I can get 25 seconds without any Firewall, but install anything like that, and the boot time easily doubles. Wonders what kind of AntiVirus gives the best trade-off between boot and security |

QUOTE(kaiserreich @ Nov 29 2010, 08:52 PM) Corsair Sandforce is way cheaper if you look around in Garage sales, local distro. Plus I don't think there is much difference even though OCZ has a deal with SF for the firmware stuff. Corsair Force firmware 1.1 used to have BSOD problem when waking up from sleep. Firmware 2.0 supposed to solve it, no problems on mine thus far. theres a new Firmware 2.0 out for F60 already.. but i cant seem to update mine coz it didnt detect my ssd.. @Hyde`fK DuraDrive thing is enable by the firmware the preserve the write or something. Perfectly normal to have lower write speeds during benching. It is enabled when too much writing or something rather. Try running CDM in 0-fill mode and you should get the full speed.  |

Based on their 1 Dec pricelist, czone is now selling OCZ Vertex 2 60GB @ RM529. Previously it was RM589.
Do you think this is a good deal? |

QUOTE(cannavaro @ Dec 1 2010, 09:16 PM) Based on their 1 Dec pricelist, czone is now selling OCZ Vertex 2 60GB @ RM529. Previously it was RM589. For SandForce SSD, cheapest is the F60 at Rm425 as pointed out. There is performance difference, but with price difference of Rm100, the performance difference is offset by the price. Otherwise, get the Intel, more space. Plus very close performance in terms of 4k Random Reads/Writes with the SandForce SSDs.Do you think this is a good deal? Or wait for price drop come 2011. Intel's G3 is due in February or March. The SandForce-2000 series is due after Xmas based on the rumours circulating around. Price of SSDs tend to fall really fast. So wait until you beh tahan, or buy it now, choice is yours. This post has been edited by kaiserreich: Dec 1 2010, 11:35 PM |
