Good drives.

I have 2 of these and 1 120gb version. They have been fast and flawless performers.

Meh...I've bought these for $60 AR before. I wouldn't spend more than $1/Gb.

How much does windows need to speed start up time?

are you asking how many seconds to get into windows 7 at boot up?

if so, it depends on your cpu and ram, but on average, mine takes like 20 seconds.

Not trying to threadcrap, just common knowledge. $1/gb is common, sometimes even less during promotions. SSD prices still going down and I expect prices to go even lower. Rebates are a pain, but one day, it will be $1/gb with NO rebate!

If I had to get an SSD at this point, I'd only pay $1 per gb for a top tier drive.
