Thanks to all for visiting Intel's SSD playlist. My name is Chris, and I'm the Intel moderator responding to some comments. Both systems have 2GB DDR2, and the configuration shown at the end is the same for both the hibernate and resume demos. The Powerpoint presentation used contains many large graphical images, so it really does take that long to render all of them on the HDD system.

Use a HDD for storage and an SSD for operating speed. Currently use of an SSD is all about performance of the PC, not fixed storage.

@2008gd But do you use Hibernate?

[2008gd]

@lestertrad I have used SSD for ~2 years now and not 1 issue whatsoever. Everything is in the background. Earlier Virus scans and backups would make the computer unusable. But now I dont even realize when these tests happened.

@channelintel Hello. I installed Windows 7 on an SSD and it became unbootable four separate times in about 2 months and had to be reinstalled. A colleague tells me that this is because I use Hibernate regularly. Looking around the Web, I find many people saying that Hibernate must not be used with an SSD because of the large and frequent writes. I suspect that that is what caused the failures. Yet you seem to say it's okay. I'd like to hear your reactions.

200GB SSD at $230 right now? I don't think so... Maybe one of the cheaper brands that's bound to crap out on you (remember that reviews are more important than specs!)

Anyway if you look at SSDs as a performance booster rather than a storage medium, the price tag is totally justifiable. Install OS and programs on SSD, keep your media on HDD. It'll be that way for a good while because you won't be seeing cheap 1-2TB SSDs anytime soon

as of right now in the pc market. I rather have a 3tb Hard Drive for $100 versus ~200gb of SDD costing me $230.

yeah yeah yeah...its faster....but really, not right now
