SSD's!
Hi guys! Just stopping by to mention that there's some good opportunities to get cheap high performance solid state drives right now due to Newegg's weekly promotion.
OCZ Vertex 4 128GB - $99 after promo code + Free shipping
OCZ Vertex 4 256GB - $210 + Free shipping
Corsair Force GT 240GB - $215 before $40 MIR + Free shipping
Plextor M3 256GB - $240 + Free shipping
I myself am going to buy a 256GB Vertex 4. 120,000 IOPS, yeah!
One important thing to note is that you need a motherboard that is SATA III (SATA 6Gb/s) compatible to get the full performance out of these SSD's. If you don't know what motherboard your PC contains, you can download CPU-Z, and it should be able to tell you. If your motherboard is only SATA II (SATA 3Gb/s) compatible, it will still be able to use the drives, but the speeds will be bottleneck'd to more like 200MB/s than 500MB/s
