We highly recommend Intel 520 120gb these days. At RM 449/5yrs warranty = RM 89.80/yr worry free ownership. It is cheaper than most ssds if you take warranty into account. Fully covered by Intel Malaysia.
The 330 120gb is RM 110 a yr. Slower abd more expensive  |

I do not know. There are a lot of possible causes of failure between a power on to getting to your desktop. Your description of the problem was insufficient to diagnose the problem.Did you try the SSD optimisation guide? Or perhaps try checking your cables? QUOTE(jns6888 @ Sep 30 2012, 08:29 PM) ya,thx u recommend me. I would recommend buying the Intel 330 180GB.

Probably not. HDDs may be slower and less responsive than SSDs, but decent programs should be able to cache the songs appropriately so that you won't feel or hear the delay. But if you are able to comfortably budget for a decent SSD, I would recommend it anyway for the overall improvement, particularly in rebooting your computer and starting up your programs. And perhaps your DJ program would also benefit in some way. |

If you are updating the firmware on the Crucial Adrenaline drive, you must uninstall the dataplex software before attempting the firmware update. Also, you can not use version 010G to update the Crucial mSATA, or 01MG to update the Crucial 2.5 inch m4.

If you do not know what they are or you haven't noticed any problem, you probably do not need this update. |

Sorry for the noob question. as mentioned by everling, it is optional.the changes log above suggested that it is an improvement over the old firmware. So I've updated mine with no doubt. update process is pretty simple & quick. can be done even in windows primary drive. my raid0 M4, no need to deactivate raid to update. download the firmware, a few clicks then the flashing process will start automatically until finish. |
