[QUOTE="Scoobydoo, post: 5715216, member: 564934"] this guy gets it;) small partition for OS and either a seperate larger partition for backup/storage or a seperate drive. anyone who has their OS installed on the same partition they backup/store data is a noob anyhow slap your OS on this drive and follow some registry tweaks on the OCZ forums and this thing flies. i did notice a large improvement from my old 7200k drive when i switched to my raptor in file transfers and this SSD is as fast, if not a little faster than the raptor was, although since i use it strictly as an OS drive it is mainly just read, which is its strong point anyway i havent had any issues at all running this in my main pc for the past 2 months. i read about the issues beforehand and did hesitate to buy, but after using it i had to switch out all my OS drives defragment in 1/10th the time, boot from startup to Vista in under 20 seconds, no noise, no heat, 1.5 million average MTFB, etc, etc....really the only disadvantage is cost, but $70 for a 32gb drive isnt really that much(i paid $130 for a 40gb drive in 2000) another very nice feature of these drives is they have a usb port built in and the case is closed so you can use them as an external USB drive, that made it much easier to clone my existing hard drive i'm buying a few more next week:) [/QUOTE]
