    • hoondaboy on 12/07/2013 - 11:04

      It won't really help your gaming experience (in-game), but for pretty much everything else an SSD upgrade is by far the most bang for buck.

      • hunterofbargains on 12/07/2013 - 11:59
        +3

        it will help your gaming experience if games are installed to the SSD….the game, the maps everything is loaded many times faster than a standard HDD, graphics wont be better but load times will be

    • lewcianci on 12/07/2013 - 11:10

      Okay done! Now to wait for it to turn up… :)

  • Infraction on 12/07/2013 - 11:11

    Tempting but i'm going to wait for a deal on 512GB before I bother rebuilding my whole system around an SSD.

    • vid_ghost on 12/07/2013 - 11:25
      +2

      :) its better to have two 256Gb SSD's then 1 single 512Gb for the same price.

      As you get more speed out of the 256Gb drives and if your writing/reading on both at the same time your getting twice the speed.

      Also if one ever fails then you still have the other.
      One could be an OS/Apps drive and the other dedicated just for games.
      Power usage and heat is next to Zero so having 2 is no problems.

      • furythree on 12/07/2013 - 12:10

        if youre talking about raid 0
        then your point about one failing doesnt apply

        i believe if one fails you lose data on both (But can reformat the good one)

        correct me if im wrong

        • vid_ghost on 12/07/2013 - 13:02

          "One could be an OS/Apps drive and the other dedicated just for games"

          you didnt get that i was talking about two drives from this one line?.. raid is pointless on SSD's and reduces the life allot

      • Infraction on 12/07/2013 - 12:52

        I see your point but I need all the space on one volume, so 2 drives would have to be in raid and then i'd have double the failure exposure. Say 80-100 for system/apps then the rest is for a studio production folder with massive libraries that needs more than 256. 512 would be a nice 100/400 split.

      • This Guy on 13/07/2013 - 03:22
        +1

        If you use one as a OS drive and one for games you haven't doubled your speed. You've doubled your maximum potential speed, which will only be noticed when you copy large amounts of data from one SSD to the other.

        If you're not super sorted then you'll also loose hours of life checking which partition you stored info on.

        If you don't have SATA 6gbps then during full load you will only see performance decreases from having two SSD's.

        You also need two SSD brackets (which can even be a problem in some newer computer cases).

        I'ld honestly prefer one SSD for these reasons.

  • PLANT on 12/07/2013 - 11:18

    Yeah the 512ssd for the PS3……

    • vid_ghost on 12/07/2013 - 11:26

      i would rather put that into a PS4 as its overkill for a PS3

    • diddy50 on 12/07/2013 - 12:08
      +1

      I thought there was no real difference for the ps3?
      Stuck on the old connection to have any gains in load times etc.
      Even with games running off the HDD

      • vid_ghost on 12/07/2013 - 13:05

        it improves it by 80% vs HDD … but if it had new sata it would improve it by 300%

        • lostn on 12/07/2013 - 13:12
          +2

          There was a feature that tested it and could not notice any significant improvement in load times. Though that was tested in the first batch of SSDs. Maybe they have improved since then.

          I don't think it's worth doing in any case. A 512GB SSD easily exceeds the cost of the PS3 itself.

        • vid_ghost on 12/07/2013 - 15:54

          people in AusOCAU forums have put in SSD's and got back twice as fast loading times on games that are installed on the harddrive.

  • Jean-Baptiste on 12/07/2013 - 11:22

    What would be the disadvantages (if any) of replacing the hard-drive in my Dell Vostro laptop with the 256GB SSD? I've had the laptop for about a year and it's starting to get slow and clunky.

    Will the SSD's performance deteriorate quickly if I do a lot of torrenting?

  • rohanp16 on 12/07/2013 - 11:58

    Naive question. Is it possible to put this in my late 2008 15" macbook pro ? Can I do it myself with some tools and simple instructions ?

    Thank you :)

    EDIT - Apparently it can only handle SATA 2.0 (3 GBPS). This might be overkill and apparently there have been issues with SATA 3.0

    • StingerGt on 12/07/2013 - 12:40

      Installing this is a breeze anyone can do it. Macbook pro pre 2011 i think can on connect at 3gbps but it is still worth replacing your standard drive with a SSD as boot and shutdown times are alittle over 12secs.

      • rohanp16 on 12/07/2013 - 13:08

        Yes you're right but I'm a bit worried about the SATA III drives performing only at 1.5GBPS rather than 3 GBPS. This is from the whirlpool thread. I'm trying to look for SATA II drives but the few that I can find are priced similarly to this SATA III SSD.

        2008 MacBook Pro 15" (Model ID MacBookPro5,1)
        While a 6G SSD does function in a 2008 MacBook Pro15" , it will only do so at SATA Revision 1.0 (1.5Gb/s) speeds rather that the SATA Revision 2.0 (3.0Gb/s) the machine is rated for. We have also experienced odd behavior such as system lock ups and random stalls in performance. As such, a 6G SSD is NOT recommended for this machine. Instead, the Mercury Extreme Pro 3.0Gb/s SSD does run at the full SATA Revision 2.0 (3Gb/s) specification and is highly recommended for use with this machine.
