Picked up a "G.Skill Falcon2 64M Buffer 64G" yesterday to dedicate to my wow folder. Popped it into an external caddy to copy wow to, copied wow from the WD 650gb green to it at 65mb a sec! over usb 2. The 650gb hard disk isn't too bad a disk either.

Shut down pc, pulled out the 650gb, popped in the SD and proceeded to try out wow.

I run 3 wow instances on that machine and it now loads a million times quicker, I don't think twice about hearthing back to Dal anymore. It used to churn away for some time before, now they are loaded up faster than if I'd hearth to IF etc. Dal would run semi slow because of the extra hard disk activity so it's not too bad there now.

Instances load much better etc too.

I had a fair idea it was my biggest bottleneck for me so very happy with the faster loads and not getting random slowness while the hard disk churns away.

W7 is still running on a 650gb WD black, will have to change that to a SD when I upgrade next to go from W7 32bit to 64bit.
