The main problem a solid state drive helps is the heat issue when using a hard drive besides speed. I would think it would work great on a 70 and since you install in the IDE port you only need drivers if you wanted to use the secondary drive as virtual memory. One thing, virtual memory is supposed to be run from a secondary disk anyway utherwise it doesn't really work well. The Sandisk Extreme IV is supposed to have write speeds of 40MB/s so even if we get only half that it is close to 1/3 of the RAM system which is 60MB/s that is pretty fast. john --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Date: Mon, 29 Oct 2007 06:32:18 EDT > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [LIB] speed gain using flash card > > I was wondering how any of this applied to earlier > Librettos.
