Me either. Good morning. Pretty pissed that someone has been uploading my photos to the picture contest bullsht. Forwarded info to two mods and hopefully this will be resolved. If someone is playing a joke on me, it's not funny.

So far he says it's been fantastic, and he's blown away by the greased-lightning quickness that he's getting now

Hiya V. That's really crazy for someone else to upload your pics to the contest. Are they doing it under your name? I dunno if that's possible, but if it's not, then you should be able to track 'em back under their SN and have them ban-hammerzor'd.

Yep, SSD's ftw pretty much you will see that quickness with any decent SSD. Only times you see differences will be in benchmarks.

Lol, My laptop is from early 08, Does that Vaio from 06 has Sata II?

There was actually a few different things model to model with my Line of Laptop(Toshiba A300) which could hurt performance wise.

Lucky for me(well I did choose some upgrades which correlated to Centrino ), mine is considered a Centrino platform Laptop more specifically its the Santa Rosa Refresh. Which basically means I get a special chipset. Instead of getting a GM45 or the GM965 Chipsets which have a different controller and an IGP. I get the PM965 with a great(at the time) controller, the Desktop ICH8M which gives me full Sata II speeds and full TRIM support where as the other chipsets had issues with TRIM(2 years ago). Also if I had the other chipsets I would of been bumped to Sata I speeds even though they are capable for Sata II just for power savings.

None the less, even if you are capped at SATA I speeds a SSD will make your computer much much faster. Since I have two HD slots in my comp I can easily run my SSD with my 320gb data drive.
