mahkeymike:
Even if it is a glitch, it does it on mine aswell so theres nothing wrong with your machine....so far...... ;D

TalkingHeadsFan:
The wording on the eBay listing is a little dicey. It does say "compact flash" drive, but then later on refers to it as an SSD...

Anyway, thanks a lot for checking for me, I really appreciate it! You saved me a lot of time and hassle, and you're damn right on the "so far" part by the way hahah

Thanks,

Your welcome. Can you do me a favor and post or PM me pics of the "CF SSD" hard drive you over payed for. If possible, unscrew the bottom cover to see the CF card inside the external enclosure.
thanks

btw, most CF cards, especially generic CF cards are slower then newer laptop ide hard drives. Even the cheapest SSD is faster then any CF card. They do make SSD ide adapters but thats not what you were sold. :censored:

TalkingHeadsFan:
Yea, I'll take some pics.

It looks like he's charging SSD prices for a cheaper CF card. :badmood: I figured I overpaid but even after replacing the drive, fans and touchscreen glass I'm still way under budget compared to what I originally planned on spending.

I'm curious how this will affect load times...

lilshawn:
whoever did these up may have cloned a corrupted drive or used a bad CD image to make the original drive to begin with.

as for the SSD... it's a compact flash to IDE adapter. you can see it in another auction he has
