QUOTE(slickz @ Nov 24 2012, 10:20 AM) Just got my laptop back from RMA from HP. It was for a faulty micron C400 SSD. Now they replaced it with this: looked like samsung ssd 840 non-pro series..  Are these numbers okay? LOL This mSATA SSD is so new that samsung itself disowned it in their website! I know this thing is currently quite rare and only released to manufacturers.  I ran Samsung's Magician utility and it doesn't even recognize it.   |

128 totally perform difference than 256gb..
for example for 128gb the type of cache is 256MB Samsung LPDDR2 SDRAM while this cache type is for 256gb SSD - 512MB Samsung LPDDR2 SDRAM the random read and sequential read and write and perform differently. Thats why most people choose 256gb? or does they really so much difference in performance? |

QUOTE(everling @ Dec 4 2012, 08:39 AM) The raw performance will be reduced, but you probably won't feel it. If this is your first SSD, it will still amaze you. And upgrading to a SATA 6.0Gbps motherboard will not double the performance you feel. You get a lot of people recommending SSDs, but you will hardly find anybody who will just as strongly recommend upgrading your motherboards to suit your SATA 6.0Gbps SSD. My recommendation about the motherboard is to not use the SSD as a reason to replace it, as it is not really worth the trouble nor the cost, unless you were already itching to replace the motherboard. thanks thanks..  ya this is my first SSD so probably i will just ignore my motherboard hehe |
