SSD - A Cheap Upgrade For Your Computer

Need To Upgrade your Computer? Just Add An SSD Drive.

If you are not an gamer or do lots of video/ graphical editing. It is just a waste to buy an new computer. Instead of ditching your old computer, buy an SSD hard drive and use it as your primary disk drive and install the operating system and programs in it and use your existing hard drive to store the media files etc. and enjoy the great boost in speed.

Buying an SSD is not an loss in anyway as the physical hard drives now are the biggest bottleneck in the system. the processor's are very fast that they just have to wait till the hard drive gives it information to process.

My tip is try an SSD in your computer if  you are still not satisfied you can still use that SSD in the new computers. Also please buy reliable brands, after all they store your important data.

Some of the reliable brands according to me are: 

1) Intel
2) Samsung
3) Crucial M4

Don't be fooled by buying the fastest SSD, reliability maters the most.

Advantages of using a SSD:

1. Speed Up Your Boot-Up

SSD knows that «go» means «go». Just turn it on and begin working in less than 30 seconds.

2. Zip through File Searches

Remember the last time you attempted a simple e-mail search using a Hard Disk Drive (HDD)? Now imagine crunching that time so it's 5x faster. That's the power of an SSD.

3. Trim File Transfer Time by Almost a Third

Transfer and copy files thirteen minutes and five seconds faster than usual—just enough time to give you a head start on rush-hour traffic.

4. Start Applications in Seconds

Need to make a quick ten-second edit before meeting with a client? SSDs load programs such as Adobe Photoshop and PowerPoint more than twice as fast as their HDD counterparts.

5. Double File-Compilation Power

Just because programmers sit behind a computer screen all day doesn't mean they're immune to slowness. An SSD boasts 2x faster file-compilation times than HDD.

6. Cut Downtime by Half

Routine maintenance tasks shouldn't disrupt your work flow. SSD cuts simple tasks such as virus scans by almost 50 percent.

7. Reduce Power Consumption

SSD requires less energy than a conventional HDD and can add an average of 30 minutes to battery life.

8. Master Multitasking

SSD smoothly handles multiple programs so you can crop photos and load game maps nearly 3x faster than with HDD.

9. Cut Video-Editing Time

Render video file clips at over 30 percent faster with SSD. You'll be able to edit quickly and move on to your next project in no time.

10. Take it Anywhere

For work that needs to extend beyond home or office walls, SSD exceeds expectations in handling shock, vibration, and temperature extremes. Go anywhere with it.
