I had a little weirdness the other day on my main system.  Started to boot it, ran 
around to get ready for work, came back and the system was locked at the pulsing 
Windows logo, actually that was the screen, but the logo was gone.  Hit 
cntrl-alt-del and the system restarted.  I didn't quite look at it, but it looked 
like the system did not detect the boot drive.  It gave me the 'Boot drive not 
found, insert disk" message.  I turned off power, and reseated all the drive 
cables, then had more to do to get ready for work, came back and there was a message 
about how the system couldn't boot, press this button and it'll try to fix it.  Hit 
the button, went off for breakfast.  Came back and since that time, every boot has 
been successful.

Have no clue as to what was wrong, but I'm figuring it's time to change the 
boot drive, so I'm thinking SSD.  All I need is enough room for the operating 
system and applications, so I'm betting that a 64GB is big enough?  Then, of 
course, which brand is a good one to get?  I was looking at the Corsair 64GB 
Newegg has for just over $100.  It's rated 5 eggs.  Good One?

Thanks...Steve
