So I installed an SSD drive in my Apple Mac and this happened..
 

.... I smiled!

It works perfectly. LOVE it. If you are looking for a really worth-while upgrade to your computer consider swapping your old hard drive for a solid state drive. My machine is quieter, runs cooler, and is lighting fast on just about everything. Super-impressed with SSD.

I did the same thing.

I took a mid-2012 MacBook Pro and I put in a 250 gig SSD and I doubled the memory from 4 to 8 gigs. The machine works GREAT and was never faster! It will keep going for years more...

Welcome to 2010.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

I installed a Plextor m5 pro extreme yesterday. Fucking kicks ass and will kick more ass once I upgrade my motherboard so I can have sata3.

I just bought a new MacbookPro tonight. 256gig one. So awesome not having some super hot laptop on me while I watch TV.

SSD rocks!

It will get hot as fuck if you play a game like World of Warcraft or League of Legends on it.

But normal surfing mine never gets hot.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:thumbsup

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh I'm still in 2008 :(

Well, congrats :)

Always funny when clowns announce how behind they are with things

Lul wot?I have premium PC laptop which i bought in January 2011 and it still work as a charm and i dont have ssd.Tho it by default it have 8 gb of memory.

you mac guys remind me of trannys ...'installed an SSD drive in my Apple Mac '.. tannys... "I went to the women's room' never just bathroom.... always the ladies room... and you mac guys .. never installed an sd drive, always installed an SSD drive in my Apple Mac .. you do know that us PC guys have been using ssd for 4 years right? :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

I have a MacBook Pro mid 2011 with an SSD and 16GB of RAM and works like a charm. :thumbsup

You pc guys remind me of trannys ... 'been using ssd for 4 years'... trannys... "I went to the women's room' never just bathroom.... always the ladies room... and you pc guys.. never had an sd drive, always had an SSD drive in my PC .. you don't know that us Mac guys have been using ssd for 4 years also right? :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

I put SSD in my HP laptop (note: PC!) two years ago and it is still one of my best performing computers.

My new iMac has SSD as well. It's new, damn thing better still run like a champ.

All in all, want a cheap upgrade for your computer? Add SSD. It's beautiful. The time savings alone are worth every penny. My HP (I did it again!) laptop is three years old, loaded with heavy-duty media software, and does a complete reboot within 15 seconds.

Wanna smile more? Go RAID 0 with 3 ssds.

I have a RAID 0 striped 6 drives for OS/only in my editing machine. 4K editing fast as fuck.

actually when we talk about upgrades and hardware or software we NEVER mention a brand name of the machine although we will say 'netgear' 'asus' 'nivida' stuff like that ...

you guys always say stuff like 'I'll check my email on my mac' we say 'I'll check my email'

another funny thing you guy say is 'my mac open anything....' which is true if you buy all the apps for $25-$49 per app :2 cents:

I've never said "I'll check my email on my Mac". Maybe you should stop hanging out with idiots?

The most expensive app I have on my Mac is $4.99. Not even my OS cost more than that. Can you say the same?

Might do that on this PC soon.

look.... I never said mac users were idiots :2 cents:

What's the point of this link? Is it because "For Mac"? Maybe because the article talks about doing it for... Get this... A Mac. The process isn't the same as PC (Which is a dumb fucking term anyways, even Macs are PC's. Maybe be a little less generic and use a proper term, Windows, or Linux because even those this process is drastically different.)

It would be disturbing if it wouldn't work like a charm with so much ram :1orglaugh

just keep doing mental jumping jacks, you'll be okay :thumbsup

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh :)


That sounds awesome but I couldn't fit that much hardware in the iMac and plus I have no 4K editing to do. But still. I've seen some youtube vids of Raided SSD and wow..


I should have said iMac, not mac, sorry. I mentioned mac first its because its what I use, and second because anyone else who uses them know that even though they run quiet with low fan speed most of the time, they tend to get hot on the top where the vents are. But now, while still at low fan speed, the machine is just a comfy warm instead of hot.

Me-thinks you've just got trannies on the brain... :)

Peace.

I have had my OCZ Vertex 4 SSD (512GB) since 10/2012 and paid about $500.
Before that an Intel X25-M 120GB for quite a while.

New tech cost money, but hey you Mac guys are used to pay a premium for dated hardware so what does it matter :)

:1orglaugh

The saved time would have more than paid for the expense. Unless your time isn't worth anything? :winkwink:

majority of computers sold in 2010 were equipped with ssd?

Damn :Oh crap

Nice script you got there :thumbsup

Orglaugh icons are not justified here as only people who bought in 2012 should laugh the most :)
You "wasted" 2 years and the price is still the same.

At the same time that person who spoke about 2010 also has no laughing voice.

"truth" is in the middle between 2010 and 2014.

works like a charm - on any OS

"truth" is that a hardware upgrade costing few hundred $$ is a trivial expense to any professional... in 2010 possible reliability issues were more of a concern for most than the price tag... :2 cents:

I agree, but that was not my point. MP posted that image to prove that 2010 was bad year (too early) to buy, yet he also proved that 2014 was bad year (too late) to buy as well.
So both of those guys should not have laughed that much :)

my first ssd drive is 80gb.. btw not sure what this graph implies??? you're smart because you paid 40% more for outdated hardware because you wanted an apple on it and the price of ssd drives is dropping???? :helpme

the sager notebook bought in 2010 had ssd

:2 cents::2 cents:

The iMac has 32GB of RAM. ;)

What for? Let me guess... for morons, who don't know how to close an app.

No I don't think they were, but I replaced my hard drive with a SSD back in 2010 or maybe it was 2011. No longer remember. It was still worth the price.

As have been said reliability and how long they could last were the biggest issue with the first generations.
That is no longer an issue, and I am surprised there are still people who use their computer for daily work, who hasn't upgraded yet.

How about to run many different virtual machines for development purposes?

Oh yeah, a moron like you wouldn't know there's more reasons for RAM usage than unclosed apps. :321GFY

We Now Bring You The Apple Forum Proudly Sponsored By GFY :thumbsup

That is funny even though I'm surrounded by Superior Apple devices, gonna fire up the Apple TV with a Pizza soon. :1orglaugh

Why do windows guys hate mac users?

So much nerd hate happening here

glad to hear

Tnks :thumbsup :pimp

You do that. Then I'll relax on the sofa, commanding my Xbox One to fire up tv, surround and sat box to watch some F1.. or have it open the Plex app, and find a good movie from the NAS library. It's the box that's actually a media center and not just a streaming tool :)

Oh yeah, well I fell asleep without putting the Pizza in the fridge. Chicago leftover Pizza to the trash, I win :1orglaugh
