mobilenvidia Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Thought this might interest some of you. I can forsee the end of the Hard Drive in the Notebook, unless something drastic happens with them. Upgrading your notebook's legacy hard drive to a new, fast SSD is a substantial upgrade that makes good sense for a number of reasons. First, Solid State Drives offer orders of magnitude higher performance under certain conditions, with blazingly fast random access times. They also produce much less heat versus a standard 2.5-inch notebook hard drive and are virtually immune to shock and vibration trauma that will send your old spinning hard drive to an early grave.

Their just a luxury instead of an incentive. Also, What Laptop today still uses Ribbons for their hard Drives.... O,o Tell me Dell doesn't...... From the looks of the pic thou they do...

mobilenvidia Posted August 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 You should be able to replace any SATA Hard Drive with a SSD BUT do your home work before hand and don't take my word for ir. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest catchtostep Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Not to mention they're more silent and consume less power (at least if you get an Intel G2 which handles 0,9W loaded and 0,5W idle) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobilenvidia Posted August 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 The prices will come down, and it won't be long, like all things technology starts off expensive, in a year or 2 dirt cheap. SSD = no Moving parts = more reliablilty as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
