I have 3 solid state hard drives in various Macs, including a 5300cs PowerBook. The big draw for me is the fact that they run so much cooler; heat is what eventually kills most laptops. My Dell mini 9 with a 32 GB SSD runs for hours and is just slightly warm to the touch. The guys on the Dell Mini Forum are big fans of RunCore SSDs, $140 for a 32 GB drive. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
