Make sure a 3rd part TRIM support is working as there is no garbage collection on IDE!!!
If not it will work for a bit of time then crash and burn and your SSD will be fried!!!
Thanks!

I am working on some W5's and my last T5 now. Dual cores and single cores. I got the single core windows 7 install down to around 25 processes after start up. It only has 1gb of ram. A guy here at works wants it for checking his deer cameras.
I do plan to try out two SSD's when I get home to see how they run in them before I sell them all. One is fullsized case 2.5" ide to Msata adapter with toshiba 128gb Msata ssd. The other is the half length ide to msata adapter(this one I know works, but speed is slower than I want).

I picked up a new 120g 5400 for song. I'll save the last unit for the SSD & follow the leaders....

I only got a week left till I head home, so in a week and half to two weeks I should have had time to test it out.
