    My PC seems to be running faster now, though load times for SC2 are kind of slow.

    I was reading reviews for SSD drives and someone posted raves about how his web browser opens in under 1 second with the SSD drive, like that's not standard on regular harddrives.

    I'm still debating SSD vs SATA6 Raptor for a boot drive.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    If you find it worth considering, SSDs are also silent and much cooler. I can't say too much about performance, reliability and durability since they're still maturing, and I haven't gotten my head around everything yet.

    Apparently Seagate made a pretty good hybrid drive though.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    I would just forget that one, better stick to a mass storage drive and a good SSD, or just forget about SSDs until the prices fall down to better values in the next 3 years, maybe.

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.
