Well a decent branded SSD at 40GB costs the same as 1TB HDD.

[color=#C71585]Yes, it does+^_^+ but the difference is a 5400 rpm TB drive takes longer to find the files it's searching for then the SSDs (SSDs can fully boot win 7 64 bit in 7 seconds) most people try and combine a larger HDD with a SDD used to install OS and other applications that benefit from the insane read speed+^_^+ a good alternative to prevent write cycle degradation is to combine a larger file drive with a high rpm low capacity HDD, it won't scream like SDD but a 30 gb (the smaller size means fewer sectors to scan before file is found) HDD at 15k rpm will boot crazy fast+^_^+

Wait, what? That doesn't make sense.

No one asked, but i would like to leave my opinion about the ssd use here. On several places you see people talking about prices of a SSD or a Video Card or anything computer related, the thing is, most of those people when telling something is not that over priced, forget to ask in which country that other person lives.

I for instance, must pay much more for anything computer related than anyone on Europe or EUA (i live on Brazil), if i remember correctly i paid for 2 ocz vertex 2 50g something like 400 - 500 dollars, which is much more than i would have paid from newegg for example, however i dont have the option to buy from a good retailer and the taxing on brazil is really HIGH on computer devices.

REsuming - the opinion - its clear that i will have a extra care compared to someone that paid 1/3 for the same device, and I do think twice before write something on my SSDs too.
