HNY. Haven't posted out here in some time, but I've not had to buy a HD in yrs - and I'm only looking now to accommodate this _old laptop w/ a new HD_. I just saw a 1GB SSD for $145 CAD. LOL. I couldn't stop laughing, and just wondered when the prices hit the floor like that. I have a a...

This is new (not refurbished), never opened. I bought from Tiger Direct in February: Buy the Transcend SSD340 Internal 256GB SSD at TigerDirect.ca I planned to use as a second drive in my 2012 Mac mini. Before I got around to installing it, I decided to go with a single, larger (960BG) SSD...

About to install this 500G SSD in the next few days and will be partitioning the drive -1st time EVAR. I need 2 partitions for sure but wondering if the 3 might make sense. 1. I used to play around w/ music software, so I wanted to create a partition for that alone. prob like 250-300G 2...

I'm about to inherit a 13" non-retina MacBook Pro, I was looking for something smaller than my 17" that was making things too challenging to carry. Friend gave me his old 13". Just needed to remove files, so I bought him a 3TB external. I'm pretty sure I'm going to max it out and use it for...

My next using will be all SSD everything. I plan on getting my hands on an Air OR a 13" rMBP but either way, i'll be going solid state (no choice) My q? is - what are you doing w/ your music libraries?? Are you storing them on your SSDs? I would ideally have a 1TB unit, but I do recall...

So when this dream of a HD came out, it was priced at this jaw dropping $300+ : for a 120G SSD w/ 1TB data drive, all in one. But I didn't think it would fly as I thought it was grossly overpriced - and so did most tech blogs. FFWD some months now, and I just saw it @ $179. Fair deal. So I...

Hi everyone, Trying to speed up my wife's aging laptop, which she uses the Adobe Suite on quite a lot. I'm looking at swapping out her current HD with this drive, which is $130 right now with coupon. I have a few questions: 1. Will this fit into her 15 inch, Mid 2010 MacBook Pro? 2. I'm...

So I'm looking around for a new laptop drive and just recalled the the hybrid drives that had made their splash a few yrs back: the SSD / HDD mix was nice on paper for sure. But As I look around, it seems they've all but vanished from the market. Did something happen? I took a look @ the WD...

I know, I know... this has been beat to the ground, but I'm looking for testimoninals re: the 2nd wave of the units. I know the 500G was problematic, which kept me from touching them when they 1st came out. But now that they're being phased out, I'm looking around to see if there are any about...

I recently installed an SSD into the optical drive of my MacBook Pro and I put the OS and all my apps on it (my Documents folder is symbolically linked from my HDD to my SSD). I've noticed that when I open TextEdit I cannot create a new file, it just says "TextEdit not responding" and I have to...

I'm thinking of installing a SSD in my late 2008 MBP. Can anybody offer any advice if I do the following: I'll keep the existing HD and move the Superdrive into an external case connecting with USB - does that make sense? As most of the latest SSD's are SATA 3, should I move the existing HD...

I recently purchased a Corsair Force 240gb SSD and installed it on my 13" MBP (2.24ghz, mid-2009, running latest version of Lion). I picked out this SSD specifically because it is better than most in power consumption (at least according to tests), but it seems to be actually decreasing my...
