Thinking About Replacing My Macbook Pro 250 GB HD With THIS:

bunch of idiots... yes that is a good idea. SSD will speed it up more than anything else, make it near silent and give you a longer battery life. I have an OCZ Vortex 2 which was the top of the benchmarks at the time, do your research.
 
I'd rather go with Intel.. they have a proven track record for reliability with SSD's. An SSD's average lifespan is not too great compared to regular hard drives. I'm still all for SSD's even with the shorter lifespan though.

The biggest bottleneck in your system is most likely your hard drive. You will see the biggest performance increase upgrading from an HD to an SSD compared to upgrading your RAM or CPU.

That's not true, SSD's these days have average lives that are longer than HDD's.

Heres a screenshot of my SSD's "health". over 7 months of work life and still at 100%, estimated life is another 8 years, exactly as it should be.

So I'm getting a new MBP and wanted to put a SSD in it. Didn't want Apple to put one in there as I'm sure they rape you for SSDs like they do for RAM, plus I'm sure I won't be getting no where near the best SSD for my money.

I remember a thread here about some guy who put a SSD in his MBP maybe 6 months ago and he got flamed for not waiting until some new SSD technology came out that made them even faster. Anyone know what I'm talking about? Has that new technology came out yet? I tried searching for the thread to no avail.

Normally I wouldn't post tits for your troubles in this thread because there is no boob icon, but seeing as there is a dancing ass and dick at the top of this thread no one is gonna make it this far who gives a fuck about T & A, and they will help heal those scarred by the bouncing dick.
