QUOTE(Oyaji @ May 8 2016, 04:59 PM) Hi guys, I just finally install windows with my liteon SSD. I just wanted to confirm something. Is it normal for an SSD to have less storage than advertised? this is same as HDD,I'm asking because when the first attempt failed, the SSD split into 2 partitions (disk 0 and disk 1). Second attempt after converting disk 0 to GPT I now left with about 238.35 GB. When I open disk management in control panel it only shows disk 0. Should I convert disk 1 to GPT as well or just leave it as is? Thanks in advance.  256gb = 256,000,000,000 bytes so just divide by 1024*1024*1024 , you will get roughly 238++ GB Newer OS use GPT (win7sp1,win8,win10) if your bios support UEFI. Generally GPT allows u to create 128 partitions. Each partitions can be more than 2TB space. So, no need to convert from MBR to GPT |

Good deal. please buy more ! » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « I recently bought this SSD for RM220.66 (after coupon) Today the price even without coupons is a mere RM168? (sandisk ssd plus 240GB) RM10 difference with the 120GB version.. I wonder if 11street will honor the price shown, if it is really a mistake..  |

QUOTE(nomar @ May 9 2016, 11:23 PM) Hi, planning to upgrade my dell vostro 5470 laptop hdd, ( it came pre-configured with 500Gb HDD + 32 Gb M sata ) . Will I see major upgrade in boot up time and programs opening coz right now it took a long time for win 10 to fully boot up. Actually your setup is called Intel Rapid Storage technology (RST) or Hybrid 500gb HDD+32gb SSD. Not technically proficient but I'm assuming on the boot up sequence win 10 will go to the M sata drive first, why is it still slow ? Looking at either Evo 850 , Sandisk extreme pro or Ultra II, am I right in saying that Samsung , Transcend hv their own migration software but for other model you need to search 3rd party program to do it ? thanks Windows load from HDD 1st. The SSD act like a caching mechanism. Only frequently used data will stored at SSD. Most files still load from HDD that cause everything to be slow. Long term solution is to install the Windows OS on the SSD alone. Upgrade to larger SSD.  |
