i have one on my laptop, i like it, if you were moving from a 5400 rpm drive to a 7200 rpm then go for it, but if your already on a 7200rpm the difference is minimal

Can't wait to get my OCZ 60 gig this weekend.

I have 2 of these (laptop version) in my laptop - the performance difference is quite noticeable for say - "last write" data but new data goes just as fast as a regular 7200 rpm hdd. by "last write" i mean any data you previously pulled up within the 4 GB (or whatever size yours is) buffer.

The drive I got is working great thus far... I see they're still decently priced at $70 on newegg.

I grabbed a Cruical M4 128GB a few weeks back for $140, lovin it!

What kinda speeds does it have? I'm having to be picky about what I install on this small thing, ha.

Here is something I based my purchase on. Reliability and price were my main concerns of course, any speed increase is going to be better than what I was using.
