This happened tonight. IT’S SO FAST.
For free, too. Was having issues with my old drive, so the store I bought my computer at offered to swap it out for a 1TB drive. I wasn’t sure about going from 7200 RPM to 5400 RPM though, so he did this instead.
Awesome.

How many times have you restarted your computer just to see how fast it is? That’s what I did when I first got an SSD.

SSDs are the best, you can never go back. I run a pair, striped, in both my main desktops because ludicrous speed.

I refuse to get a machine without getting an SSD for it.

You should try *going from an IDE drive on vista to SSD on Win7. On the old set up, getting fully started up would take like 20 minutes, and I am not at all joking with that.
Now, I push power button, I blink, my desktop appears.
*(Actually no. Don’t ever do that. Not even masochists deserve that kind of self flagellation)

The only problem with experiencing the might and power of an SSD is that you’ll want it in everything you own. Every computer I buy now or build now has to have an SSD in it; no exceptions.

I am actually rather bummed with my experience with SSD's. My laptop and my wife's netbook only boot about 2-3 seconds quicker. Then again, my laptop is a POS Toshiba. And my wife's netbook is, well, a netbook.
