Going to replace my MBP boot drive with this and move the exisitng HDD to the optical bay ( bought a caddy off amazon for $12)

Quote from eduardmc : what the heck, with this prices i ordered a second one a do a raid 0 256gb. any one know if i can backup with acronis and restore on a raid 0

Acronis wont know it's in RAID, the RAID controller takes care of that. Acronis will see it as one drive.

Yay! Mine was delivered just now, and I ordered 5/30! Came from only 2 states away though.

I am really excited and want to install it but I don't know if should return it and get the Plextor M3 on the front page or not.

(or get both)

Quote from DD727 : Wow, Staples has very fast delivery. I ordered yesterday for total $90 after tax, and It just arrived. Faster than amazon prime lol

Same here. I just placed my order yesterday morning for delivery to my local Staples store. Just got a call from the store right now that it's already available for pickup. Going after work to get my new toy to play with over the weekend.

how to update the firmware ??

Quote from psyctto : yeah dude, i'm going with there's something else wrong unfortunately your computer should absolutely dominate mine. i'd just reinstall and be done with it. hopefully people keep their gaming computers separate from their normal computers like i do (just for this reason)... good luck man.

Ordered the two SSD and with Prime they came the next day, man I love Amazon.

Prior to installing the SSDs I deleted everything BF3 related except my config file. Redownloaded, reinstalled BF3 to the dual WD VR in Raid0 and the load times drasticlly improved. I'm down to 6-7sec for a map reload and most new maps load in <13 second. I'm almost always first in and first to the chopper now.

I then cloned my gaming drives to a 1.5 Seagate Barracuda, and recloned to the two M4 SSDs in Raid0.

I see a slight improvement on some map loads. Some load in 3-4 seconds now.

All in all was it worth the $170? Not really, I should have tried to reinstall prior to getting the M4s.

Oh well.

Thanks for the tip.

WTF....mine was supposed to be delivered to store on 6/6 and I STILL haven't gotten a confirmation it is ready for pick-up. I think I'm going to tell them to keep it and cancel my order. I'll just wait for a better deal.
