How does this drive compare when it comes to latency? You can run this test with the iometer.org tool. The interesting test is Iometer 4KB Random Writes, IOqueue=3, 8GB sector space. The interesting parameters are IOs per second, (MB/s), Average Latency and Maximum Latency. <br /><br />I am wondering because, if the drive fails these tests, your system is bound to get hangs in real life scenarios. Then you would probably be better off with an ordinary HDD.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03689316400800221632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33183441.post-72582727488880094692009-09-21T10:25:12.728-07:002009-09-21T10:25:12.728-07:00Hi all!

The standard is expected to be used for 64GB and smaller SSDs. Higher capacity SSDs can be designed to be the size of 1.8 inch or 2.5 inch hard drives.<br /><br />But alas it may not help all of us who have older 1st Gen netbooks.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10981805009023896256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33183441.post-24094679353974348692009-09-01T03:29:14.381-07:002009-09-01T03:29:14.381-07:00Would you be able to comment on just how much fast...Would you be able to comment on just how much faster the new Pro 4 feels when compared with the older RunCore express card micro SATA 64Gb SSD?

My laptop only supports ATA-10 so I'm trying to find something that will work with it - IDE SSDs seem so expensive that I might as well get a new netbook.

Swap is one of the best files you could put on an SSD!
