actually we upgrade from hdd because of we want from 40sec to below 10sec boot time...so i think 5 to 10 seconds is kinda big different .which is why im concern about plextor spec itself cant match with others. dint read much review yet but will do soon.

If you excluded the BIOS POS check, you can achive 40ish sec boot time by using a normal HDD (mine's green). As for plextor M5S I managed to made it below 40sec if I disable Non-Gui Boot which also include BIOS POS check (mine takes a hell of time)  doh.gif
Sorry if I'm asking a foolish question but...what do you mean by fast boot in power settings?

lol sorry for my previous unclear post what i mean is from 40sec(HDD) to a below 10sec(ssd) boot time.

Try Radioshack @Borders. IIRC They're selling the Sandisk Extreme 120GB SSD at RM43X.

Minimum RM30 has to be spent on books, the rest can spend at Radioshack tongue.gif

Plus, you get freebies like 6 Krispy Kreme doughnuts, 1 complimentary Chatime drink, Borders vouchers and many more tongue.gif
