Guys,
Looking for comments on between the OCZ Vertex 2 and the Corsair F60 given that most shops in Low Yat are selling them at the same price. It would also seem that these 2 have very similar spec. So I am kinda wondering if it now boils down to who can get the firmware right for trouble free install and post sales support.
Any help in suggesting.
Thank in advance...

Just a question.
Does anyone know any software we use to test to see if the SSD has been used before? Any tools we can use? I just got an OCZ SSD but the package was an open package and i am worried that it may have been used before.

Thanks.

I just wanted to share this info from my own installation.
I got the 40GB Vertex 2 SSD
With just basic Windows 7 Ultimate, Firefox, windows update, i have used about 17GB of space. I have moved my documents, games and my profile contents to another drive to conserve space. It works but I am beginning to feel strained everytime I install, have to watch where i install it, how much space left in the SSD drive.

A little stressful but the boot-up and shutdown times was a spectacular moment to enjoy.
So for those thinking if 40GB will even cut it, you have my thoughts on this...

I think the profile data itself is still in the main drive. Only profile's linked content such as desktop, download, my documents, my videos and so on can be shifted. You will need to change the properties of the folder and redivert it to another drive. Perhaps i was not too clear on my statement....

But 40GB is doable for those unsure if they should be spending RM8xx for the higher capacity drives.

just look into the folder(assuming you use Win7) using windows explorer C:\Users\[profile_name]
Right click on the properties of each folder and you can change the location store.

Hi,
I too use the desktop extensively to store my files and i changed the desktop store location to another drive. I don't feel any difference ie.e. slowdown and it helps you keep the 20 odd GB of available space in check.

I must iterate that it is definitely doable. I am sure there are others who are also doing it this way. The only sacrifice is the convenience of just clicking save or next during installation. You have to think where you are going to store that file or program.
