SSD drives and MB with 6gbps worth it??
newmanfamilyvlogs:
Potentially!
What sort of daily activities will you be doing with said machine?
SNAAKE:
ebay stuff, photoshop, HD video editing , watching HD videos(cant even play 720p now lol), live stream videos, basic web designs with flash, etc etc.
newmanfamilyvlogs:
photoshop will benefit quite a bit from an ssd, from launching faster to having the scratch disk be faster. that having been said, 64gb will be eaten up pretty quickly, so i'll assume you're pairing this with a traditional disk as well.
SNAAKE:
yeah I will use my other WD black drive for storage. went ahead and ordered that 64gb ssd. thanks :cheers:

Good man. I stuck an M4 64gb into my main PC (core2duo) a few months ago and it RIPS along now. Sequential reading from my boot drive has gone from 80MBmp to 280MBps and will shoot up to around 400-450 when I upgrade to a 6gbps Sata board.
Best bang for the buck you can do for your PC (as long as the HDD is the bottleneck, won`t be much use if your CPU is a donkey)
By the way, If you get BSOD`s after install, consider flashing to the latest firmware. Some users have been experiencing issues. You`ll also get a 3-5% performance boost.
