[QUOTE="2cvbloke, post: 902342, member: 199791"] I have a Mushkin Chronos 120GB SSD in my C2D desktop, it's that speedy that even windows boots up to the desktop within 10 seconds, about the same as my Amiga A600 loading Workbench (fitted with a CF card acting as an SSD), but the latter's got less to load... :-rofl2 As for used HDDs from old laptops, external HDDs are a perfect use, but as mentioned, keep an eye on the condition of them, as you never know if they've been ridden hard or if they're ready to fall apart... :):) [/QUOTE]
