QUOTE(hosealwh @ Sep 23 2010, 01:58 PM) Then consumer grade of SSD and even HDD don't suit you. You need to pay more for enterprise grade drives. Ever considering durability vs performance?Also, SSD upgrade is perhaps better than even ram upgrade. Some might say 10 sec program loading reduce to 5 sec loading like not significant but hey if you open programs day to day, how many seconds you have saved? Especially you are in a rush to do something, what would you feel when something response slow like a snail? a HDD can last > 5 years let say depreciation of the HDD is 20% slower and a SSD constantly using can last around 5 years which totally to drain Which 1 would u prefer if u are a company or a BT downloader? I dont mind it slow down 5 sec( When you have time to play game 5 sec does it matters?) |

QUOTE(clawhammer @ Sep 24 2010, 03:22 AM) I think you totally do not understand what SSD's are meant for and how do we best utilize it. Firstly, start reading up google articles on what are the main advantages of SSD and why is it fast, becoming the current trend, etc. Secondly, if you're someone that doesn't go for technology and not willing to spend, don't ever think of SSD. You can settle down with normal SATA2 or even IDE drives (those won't depreciate so much). Sometimes it's simple, we do our own homework first and get an idea what the product is all about. Hmmmm, I couldnt disagree you, you are true also i want SSD so much but after reading some of the article SSD doesnt works like HDD u need some space to let it work at optimal rate.Maybe ill wait for SSD dominate the market 1st only i grab 1 unit |

QUOTE(clawhammer @ Sep 24 2010, 01:38 PM) You basically want to improve the read speed of the OS, applications and games you're running hence you put all of these on the SSD drive. Photos, videos, documents, etc should go to the conventional platter drive. By doing this, everything in Windows would be snappier because of the improved response time from the SSD. Remember that most of the time, the bottleneck is with the hard disk drive, not our RAM or CPU. The SSD helps in this area by reducing the bottleneck. Failure rate of SSD isit high? |

QUOTE(clawhammer @ Sep 25 2010, 04:57 AM) That's the whole problem 2 words Its expensiveTypical Malaysian mentality which I don't know why i always wanted to raid a HDD but if i raid 2 HDD i would go for a SSD and the capacity of a SSD is very small, so end up i buy 1 HDD This post has been edited by munak991: Sep 25 2010, 05:54 AM |

QUOTE(Jet23sky @ Sep 28 2010, 12:54 AM) 1. I didn't compare 3.5 or 2.5. just that all are drives that able to save your data and storage in an efficient way. U has the same side as me. I spend 10k on my dekstop after 2 years it is slower than a 3k com.2. i nvr think SSD is a new product. ( You assume only ). That's is why it has been so many years, but SSD is still not able to rise up in the market, and yet everyone is still thinking of purchasing RM300+ 2TB harddisk. 3. Here is Malaysia. That is how the market is. I'm bought a PC cost RM8k last year. All frens and other relatives said I'm idiot. I do enjoy technology. But guess what. After use it for some time, I really do think it is really waste of money cause with RM3k I can still enjoy using PC. That is life. That is why people still hoping SSD to drop price. Trust me, it will. It is just a matter of time. ( This is what era, even LCD few years ago from 10k drop even RM600 only ). 4. RAID is used to increase storage reliability through redundancy, combining multiple low-cost, less-reliable disk drives components into a logical unit where all drives in the array are interdependent. I never say it is for combining disks. ( You assume it as well ). 5. It is true i do not own SSD. But do you think all reviewers in the whole world are giving wrong information? That is how I get my nice pc after reading review video for 3 months in total. I also know it can make difference for daily computing. But how much. Huge diff? How huge it will be? Could you please elaborate more on this? Cause I really do not think normal consumer really need to spend 1k on harddisk right now just can make difference for daily computing. ( Except for organization thats for sure ). If purchasing SSD is just to speed up games, processing daily photo, video editing, gaming ( Thats what all normal consumer do ). I think it's not worth it. 6. In fact, I'm not planning to buy at the moment 7. I feel it does not necessary to do so cause all my frens don't have SSD. With my current pc spec. I'm really happy with it I have alot of feeling about this since I bought RM8k PC. It is not that I wan to make myself bangga. Just to let you know. Here is Malaysia. If really want to make everyone able to get SSD. It's either make Malaysia economy better or wait till SSD drop price. Man.. writing this is like flamming already.. P/S: Lolz, after finish this post, i only find out is you. Yesterday afternoon we chat about acceletro 5870 lolz. Now i use 4k to upgrade my PC to get super high end wohoo compare to last time 10k |

QUOTE(OC4/3 @ Jan 16 2011, 12:41 PM) It's not about sequential speed dude Yea, i checked 1 forum said that multiple HDD raid 0 is not good, because latency increase (Access Time).SSD biggest strength is in Random Read/Write,that why your system feel fast and more swift with ssd when compared to HDD So still stick with 1 or 2 SSD raid or not raid the best |
