LOL.......good job Doug! I'd run with that version for awhile and if it doesn't cause any problems, rock and roll with it! Like Bill said, the Random 4K numbers jumped up a good notch, and that is what you can physically feel.

Yeah, Bill is an enabler for benchmarkers like me

That does not look too bad. The first half is probably due to something else running off the SSD. But your access time is OK - and that's what counts.

Now I do like the Samsung's personally but I only want a small one for testing and the cheapest I can get from my usual supplier is the Fujitsu S306 64GB SSD for $79 but I do see it has the Sandforce controller so am wondering if anyone has had any experience with this brand.

Otherwise I shall have to wait and get the Samsung 840 Pro 120GB for $30 more.

the Samsung 840 Pro 120GB for $30 more

I think that would be a much better deal in the long run. $79 for the Fujitsu is not all that great. I bought a 60GB Mushkin for $59 half a year ago (from Newegg on sale) and that works great. It costs $5 more right now.

Thanks Wolfgang I got it wrong it is not the Pro one just an ordinary 840 the Pro was double the Fujitsu.

As it is the spare laptop I might even consider a 7200 spinner it really isn't critical to be super fast.:)

I would install the 60GB Mushkin SSD. At a later time you can always use it for something else.
