Money no object, if I were to recommend one upgrade in any system, it will most definitely be a SSD. Offering nearly double the performance over the fastest hard drive I have ever tested speaks volumes about the performance that a SSD delivers. Even a...

The drive was wonderful and extremely fast. Was, being the key word

How fast is fast? I don't care how fast hard drives spin. I am a new man. I will fight and embrace all the issues of SSD just to appreciate how fast SSD's are

none so far
