I have a Crucial M4 SSD, I like it but I wish I had purchased another 2TB hard drive.

SSD for the OS on a workstation, all other files/data on a big raid5 NAS. Don't clutter your workstation with your data.. and upgrading your workstation in the future will be a whole lot easier.

Best upgrade I've ever done. Boot time was more than cut in half.

I do not trust those things. I bought one recently and it failed on the second day.

I'll never build / buy another system without one for the OS drive. I still use regular hard drives for the data storage.

I use an OCZ 120gb for my OS with another OCZ 120 gb for cloned backup. I keep all data on a mirrored D drive. Boot time is less than 20 seconds on Win 7 pro. Everything speeds up. I just ordered a Samsung 256 gb to replace it. Do it and you will not regret it.

SSD in old pc's/OS it can fail i.e. files trashed with randon dirtyness data, if you use windows xp/vista esp. with older SSD models/firmwares - and if bios of your pc is old too.
To my knowledge using windows 7, latest bios on motherboard and ssd drive itself, all it should run ok and faster.
But, I was too brave to test an ancient SSD in a pc with "old bios" and Vista a few years ago (2007 I think) when no one had it... yes was cool I boot windows in half or one third the time of everyone else, I invited people here in office just to show the windows boot and it was a major shock to evryone, I could sell tickets to people wanting to see it happen... at the time there was no windows 7 out yet (and SSD being old firmwares too and alone it was costing twice the the pc itself).. soon I discovered on Vista (unsure what service pack was out yet) I had files data shaked and corrupted - too often to use it for real. In text files you could see nonsense data inserted here and there... and you will not know what files got corrupt in hd so you could trash all.
So at the time such SSD - as I've read googleint around - it was usable only on latest linuxes for servers who supported "trim command" and other AHCI stuff, not supported in windows xp or even vista - who also had some rogue issue with caching or prefertch or on an SSD with certain firmware (could be newer SSD's will work even on XP, unsure).

So SSD it is like mandatory if you don't want wait load times BUT don't put it in your old xp notebook.
