Crucial
raikko | M4 | 128GB | Single AHCI

not a good benchmark i think, all setting done but still got this result.. huhu..

the low scores are quite normal for non Sandy Bridge platforms since your mobo only has 3rd party SATA3 ports instead of native Intel SATA3.

Hi guys, looking to join the club. Those of you who have one, how did you get a hold of your Samsung 830?

Have to buy outside Malaysia.

A question. Does the overall speed reduced if we fill the data in SSD up to 80% (for example)?

Order from where, the States?

Yes, from newegg or ebay

OK thank you, see you on the battlefield!

oic patut la..

im waiting ivy bridge to change my mobo..

Awesome. Will you mind to share on the tweaks you applied?

lol ive been trying to understand this ssd by reading from the 1st page, and after 20 pages, still could not understand. i guess i might be joining the group much later i guess haha

haha maybe u need to read from ssd thread v1 also... hahahaha...

coming from HDD to SSD can be quite confusing.. I understand this. U shud start by asking some basic questions...

okay let say im buing a hp dm1-4018, and i want to change the hdd to ssd, which one is okay? i see that all mentioning that not all mobo have sata 3, but is that dm1 come with sata 3?

and what which ssd u all suggest me to buy for that dm 1 for a budget let say 300 ringgi?

SATA 3 (aka SATA 6.0 Gbps) is backwards compatible with SATA 2 (aka SATA 3.0 Gbps). You will lose maximum performance, but that is acceptable for your situation.

But unless you can have both HDD and SSD running in your laptop at the same time, your budget of RM300 will not be sufficient. For RM300, your only first-hand option would be an Intel 40 GB SSD. Everything else seems to be at least RM350, which are 60GB SSDs. Or you could buy second-hand SSDs. However, these capacities are much to small when compared to to the DM1's default HDD capacity of 640GB. Unless you do not need most of the capacity or you can have both SSD and HDD at the same time, buying an SSD will be a bad idea for you. A similarly sized SSD will be Intel's 600GB SSD that goes for RM3599.
