I bought this drive some months ago to replace an aging hard drive in my P-III system and boost system speed over-all.. The data transfer speed increase with this drive was just amazing. Zero seek time and screaming data transfer rates compared to a 5400 RPM IDE running on UDMA mode 5. Plus system noise, heat and power have all been reduced.Sure it is very expensive per MB compared to a regular hard drive, and it's only 8GB, but when you're working with older systems and don't need tons of GB, these SSD drives are an absolute joy to work with. Just remember, people, if you're going to use these as the primary OS drive, buy the SLC version like this one.

Unlike another reviewer, I say there's still plenty of market for this drive. A [...] adapter (2.5 to 3.5 IDE, which I'm using) allows you to use this in desktop computers. Another adapter which I've seen available makes it usable in desktops that are limited to only SATA drives.A tiny tweak will allow you to move all your personal data off onto another drive without changing how you use the interface so the size is no problem. All of my data and any app which does not need to be installed exists on a seperate drive keeping my OS partition cleaner. I have 98 (6 second boot) and XP (11 second boot) co-existing on less than half of this drive.Downside is that the connector is unkeyed, meaning it's possible to hook the cable up incorrectly. Other than that, it's a great drive.The tweak, for those interested, depends on the OS in use.I know Linux only enough to know it's possible.Win9x needs a registry change (Check HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders for possibilities and put the ones to be changed in User Shell Folders) and reboot, then copy the files.On XP, this can be done in Explorer simply by dragging the appropriate folders elsewhere (this works in 9x, but Explorer gets confused sometimes).Good ones to move (for space) are Desktop and My Documents.
