I have a Sony X series laptop with 128 gb drive. I bought it in August 2010 and it works perfectly. I have a 2 year warantee that covers everything they say.
I should add that this is the best laptop I have owned. It weighs nothing and is thin as paper. It has Win 7, vga, 2 usb and ethernet, sound, etc. I use it at user meetings to control several routers, TV display. I wifi to my Sprint HTC 4g evo with hotspot, connect to a Belkin Router and it will allow many users to have 4g internet access. I am looking forward to the new ASUS prime tablet with bluetooth keyboard when it comes out later this month. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike Copeland" <[email protected]> To: "ProFox Email List" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, December 07, 2011 2:18 PM Subject: NF SSD experiences I know this topic has been hashed around before on the list, but has anyone had more than a couple months experience with SSDs? (solid state drives) Intel has just announced their new line of SSDs that have multiple (10) I/O channels for servers that are multi-processor or multi-core CPU designed. I realize that VFP might not actually take advantage of the multi-core CPU or multi I/O channels for the storage subsystem, but it could be pretty beneficial for a virtual server supporting multiple users. The problem with SSDs that have me hesitating from trying is that they reportedly have a very high failure rate (compared to traditional spinning disk drives). The most convincing "expose" I read was on a hardware/technology website where the consensus was that if you get 6 months to a year out of an SSD, you're living on thin ice. (Not because of the original problem of the storage wearing out due to repeated writes, but because of the drive just failing to boot suddenly.) The pricing (due to conventional drive pricing being high after the monsoons) is getting attractive...anyone actually had an SSD long enough to have a good track record?
