I wonder if /var and /home should be on the ssd or not. It is very nice
to have a silent machine ... but maybe this does more harm than good.
I had repeated I/O-errors while having /home on the ssd, with kernel

What I still wonder:
* I copied my gentoo over while the ssd still was on firmware 02HA, I
upgraded to 02HD (latest Intel-firmware for the X25-M G2) with the os
already on the drive. Does that somehow make a difference to data

SSDs are not a magic bullet, it's unlikely they will give you a
killer performance improvement that makes you go WOW!!!
sad to hear

Received my Intel Postville 80G G2 today.
Copied my gentoo-root-fs to it (mkfs-ext4, then rsync), and my /home as

It boots and works

since ssds don't like write/erase cycles you should only put your system on

What do you think about /home ? ssd or hdd ?
I tend to ssd as
I think that buying an SSD right now is not worth it. If you are going to
buy one, get the intel G2 ones, but in my opinion it is always better to
first max out your RAM in your PC. After all the SSD is going to help when
you first boot your PC or open a program. After that everything is cached in

Thanks for the hint ...
Greets, gentoo-users,
I hope not to bring up some boring ricer-topic ;-)
I am thinking of getting one of those shiny new SSDs for my main
