Steve,
Why do you put your apps on the same drive as the OS? I put my apps on
another
partition.
Yes, I'd guess a 64GB SSD would work fine for the OS boot drive.
Best,
Duncan

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
