Thanks for that, does sound as if using them with 7 is the way to go. I think it would be good to see one in real life..sadly you have to fork out for one to try one!
Yes, but remember that under British distance trade regulations, you can get one, inspect it (which may involve making sure it works), and still send it back if you ordered it online with no prior viewing opportunity, with the only cost being postage. With that method, you'd be able to try it out, see if you liked it and return it if necessary. What some have said is the best thing about SSDs is that the seek time is instant, so the extra 10-15 ms to find each file makes the computer feel a lot snappier.
I would feel rather bad about doing that given whoever I'd bought it from would probably resell it to someone else. Trouble with these things is the more you read about them the more you can consider you really would quite like one. Nightmare!
Someone else would have it, but to all other intents and purposes it might as well be new. If you damage it you can't get the refund. You should feel so bad. It's a statutory right, after all.
I tend to think thats more for a genuine mistake than what is essentially leasing it then returning it. Shall have to see..give up console upgrade to put SSD in new build. Choices choices!
No, it's not if you make a mistake, it's so you can inspect it, to make sure it's good for you. In a shop, you see a piece of hardware, you are allowed to look at it and make sure there aren't any massive physical defects. It's the same here. As long as you treat it with care, anyway.
True enough, I bet I'd convince myself to keep it! I shall see about getting the new PC built and then see if I can bear the additional cost when the initial shine has worn off 8).
