Just for the record, Fry's website is messed up. They're advertising the Corsair Nova 64 GB ssd, which isn't in fact what they're selling. The description and picture are of the Nova, but the model...

Picked up mine and cloned Win 7 from an older 50GB Vertex 2, WEI disk score is 7.0, not bad for an ancient SSD.

I'd say they are customer returns because of the stuttering issues, they probably just powered them on and checked to make sure they are physically okay, and maybe updated the FW to Corsair's latest...

Unfortunately the "generic" FW update doesn't really seem to do anything at all.
After a few days of use the multitasking issues return in full swing.
You are really better off taking a look at...

Technically you shouldn't clone HDD to SSD due to alignment issues, it's no longer a problem nowadays. Utilities such as Easeus To-Do Backup has options optimize the cloning process for SSDs. I don't...

Good call, you are right it's the Nova 2 60GB, well for $35 it's just a cheap SSD boot drive, which I plan to use on a HTPC, not a huge investment and if it goes bad no important files will be on it.

How do you refurbish an SSD? I would buy one of these if I needed one. Something tells me that these are new closeouts.

I thought you couldn't/shouldn't clone ssd drives? I don't know much about SDD's and would appreciate any information you provide.
