      I put my in my brothers, I just had to install the SSD caddy. It came with the retail box. If these are OEM, you will need to buy your own.

      • furythree on 10/08/2012 - 13:42

        caddys are $12 off ebay. measure the height first. 10mm or 12mm

        • padfoot07 on 10/08/2012 - 15:04

          do these replace the CD drive? I thought you could just take out the old HD and replace it with this one.

          No it doesn't, I would suggest watching YouTube videos of how to change your HDD to SSD to understand how installation takes place. This might be a start…

        • padfoot07 on 10/08/2012 - 15:41

          So something like this won't work?

          http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qeYy2k0a1Fs

        • jetair on 10/08/2012 - 15:48

          Sry, I was thinking about an old Dell Inspiron desktop, because people replied with caddy solutions for a laptop…. LOL

          I would suggest measuring your HDDs height inside, with the 9.5mm of both the Sandisk and Kingston, if a 9.5mm high SSD can sit in your HDDs place then its just a matter of taking the HDD out and placing the SDD in its place. Measure the depth of the laptop's HDD compartment.

        • padfoot07 on 10/08/2012 - 16:00

          Hahha okay sweet! I was a bit confused for a second! I've installed an Intel SSD in my desktop PC and I'd like to have one for my laptop also.

          What other sizes do the SSD's come in? Are they all 9.5mm? And don't I need to worry about the caddy? (AFAIK that is if you want 2 drives so you raple the optical drive with it?)

        • jetair on 10/08/2012 - 16:09

          yes you can replace your CD drive with this, to sustain both your HDD in its home location and SDD in this…

          http://compare.ebay.com.au/like/320899676142?ltyp=AllFixedPr…

        • padfoot07 on 10/08/2012 - 16:11

          ok cool, but if I want to keep the CD drive I can just swap out the existing HDD?

        • jetair on 10/08/2012 - 16:31

          yes as long as you have a bit more than 9.5mm of height available where your HDDs located.

          This might also help, but no dimensions mentioned…

        The 330 is Sata 3, and does 500read/450write, very much inline with the sandisk.

        • furythree on 10/08/2012 - 13:51

          hmm thats what I initially thought
          id prefer the intel for the reliability and if it was similar price and speeds its a no brainer

      Tools to port your install of windows to a new SSD are out there. One came with the SSD I bought last month. Makes the install a snap, no need to reconfigure windows.

      Or, use Clonezilla, image windows and re-image to the new SSD. I'm going to grab one of those 240Gb Sandisk ones right now.

    Hi, can you please address these concerns at the bottom of this deal

      Hi diamondtouch1

      re: the concern about the Sandisk Extreme SD crd Serial number

      All of our Sandisk products are officially offered by Sandisk. There is NO Serial number issued with Sandisk Extreme 32GB SDHC card product (but only the lot number by laser print on the back of the product ). Some Sandisk distributor may print a "after market" serial number and stick on the product to identify their own Sandisk products.

        Thanks danilochan, I appreciate your reply.

    At these prices, I'm tempted to grab a few to upgrade some family members PCs.

    Only question - is it worth doing on XP, or do you need Win7 to see real benefits?

    • furythree on 10/08/2012 - 17:47

      why are you even using xp anyway

      • giggles on 10/08/2012 - 20:23

        I put an SSD in my old 486 but it still takes 5 mins to boot Win95.

        Took ages to wire up the sata over to parallel port.

      • UncleRico on 10/08/2012 - 20:25

        Clearly, I'm not.

        But like a huge percentage of Wintel users, some of my family have older PCs, more humble computing requirements and less compulsion to spend spend money upgrading from an OS that meets their needs to one they've never used before.

        Question stands; would they receive tangible benefits from an SSD upgrade or is their little point for XP users?

        • odysseus on 10/08/2012 - 22:49

          I'm not certain, but from what I've read of the Trim issue, and AHCI, it's probably better not to unless you want to go to extra trouble and research making sure you can set all that up manually with your BIOS, drive's firmware and settings.

        • scrimshaw on 10/08/2012 - 23:54

          Without the proper set up, you can easily lose the benefits of the SSD because Windows XP wasn't designed for SSD's (and Window's updates don't fix the issues)

          XP IIRC does not align the SSD when it is first used, so you need to stick the SSD into a machine that runs Vista/ Win 7 and do the formatting from there.

          After that, you can use it in an XP machine, but without proper TRIM support the drive will become very sluggish. Some manufacturers issue firmware updates and apps (like Intel Toolbox, which works only with Intel systems) which can sort of add TRIM capability to your system, but it is not a perfect solution.
          To maintain top performance, you will probably want to do a backup/secure erase/restore once or twice a year.

          Here's a tutorial that you can follow to install SSD properly on a XP system.

    Have watched SSD prices tumbling, decided that at $79.95 + $9.99 for the Kingston 128Gb it was time to hop aboard.

    Irritated that ShoppingSquare won't take a credit card directly and want to force me to have a PayPal account. Why? After jumping through various hoops, used BPAY.

    Apart from that grumble, looks like a good deal.

    • sandgroper on 10/08/2012 - 22:20

      I found Paypal to be safer to use. If there is a problem, they can deal with the $$$ side if things quickly.

      • mikeham on 11/08/2012 - 01:10
        +1

        If you're happy with PayPal and the way they do business, fine. Personally, I have a different opinion.

        But … meh, whatever. When buying on, say, eBay I'm offered the option to either use (a) credit/debit card [yes, it still goes through PayPal] or (b) a PayPal account.

        My point is just that ShoppingSquare doesn't let me use option (a).

        It's no big deal: BPAY worked, and I'm looking forward to the SSD drive.
