Senior Member 3,074 posts Joined: Jul 2006	QUOTE(fariq_azad @ Oct 17 2007, 10:18 AM) bro how much do you think a 32GB SSD would cost? have you heard about the compact flash to notebook IDE converter? I hear its also good 32GB 2.5" cost like USD300 (Transcend) while for (Supper Talent) cost like USD550. -This price is base on Ebay US. While if we get it here the price would be slightly higher. "Compact flash to notebook IDE converter" -Bro do u mean the "ExpressCard SSD"? If yes i dont think can use as HDD but only work as "ReadyBoost" for Vista OS and this price also not very cheap 8GB cost u like USD200! Lets put the price aside (since tech gadget price drop kinda fast) i just worry that is this drive work with ThinkPad? Our ThinkPad have a "Shock-Mounted Hard Drive" that come with "Active Protection System) software.. When the "Shock-Mounted Hard Drive" detect movement it stop the HDD to spin... if we install 2.5" SSD inside what will happen? (Lets say i activate the Active Protected System software). Other then this does our BIOS recognize SSD? p.s. i worry that if i get SSD from US and later findout that my machine not compatible with it Edit: Ah! the bootup time for Vista less then 1min while XP less then 30sec with SSD!

I think can find it at the garage sale under notebook PDA section. I guess Its a Cheaper alternative but CF card are now at 8GB? -Ah.. bro u mean "Compat flash".. I dont think it work fine with me I want a purely 2.5" SSD that exchange with my 2.5" HDD (CF card used as HDD sound messy and if it really good* i think alot ppl using it right now) Price VS Speed VS Durability -Bout 8GB i mention above is "ExpressCard SSD" while CF card max capacity up to freaking 64GB!! p.s. no 1 using SSD atm?

Under certain circumstances our largest customers have the option of buying systems with the old logo. -If you are buying our systems at retail or through the web, your sticker will continue to be the familiar IBM ThinkPad logo. You will not have a choice of the logo you receive. -All of our ThinkCentre desktops today continue to have both the IBM name as well as the Lenovo name on the front. Starting later this year, we will start removing the IBM logo from the products. -All of our keyboards and mice shipped with our ThinkCentre desktops will feature the Lenovo logo only Our options and accessories will either feature the ThinkPad logo if it is a ThinkPad option or the Lenovo logo if is a Lenovo accessory. QUOTE By early 2008, all of our products will be using the new branding and will not be sold with the IBM name any longer. DOH!! Your facts is asking ppl go to showroom view the some of model they display there? Or u want us to go Lenovo OWN Blog read whats in those manufacturer mind? Can we really trust seller now days?
