    Thumbs up SSD Intel X25-V 40GB

    In this weekend added a SSD to one of my PCs.
    I never used one.
    My choice is Intel x25-V 40 GB. 100 Euro. Bought in local retailer.
    Performance improvements are really good for WoW.

    Generally this Pc manages 4 WoW instances.

    PC host specs:
    It s Dell XPS 420, upgraded in many components, Quad Core - 8GB Ram DDR2 - Video Card ATI 5770 1GB. Monitor 24" 1920x1080

    followed suggestions, copied wow folder in SSD.

    Great!
    Input lag looks better, Game(s) faster.

    Thinking to use one for OS, when in future build my new PC

    Thanks for sharing. I am not sure about the OS on the SSD. WoW for sure. I got a 64gb Kingston for the new built.

    I'd be curious to see 2x X25-M in Raid0.
    Really tempted to go that route, in the summer when my seasonal work starts.

    SSD in Raid 0.... so now, instead of almost instant loading times, I could get half almost instant loading times!

    Might want to read over that Anandtech review before you initialize them for RAID-0. Seems there's a substantial benefit to only allocating 60GB out of the total 80GB.

    The last two pics where they only used 60gb out of the 80 were broken links. Interesting.
