Mike - I upgraded my laptop with a smart hybrid drive - SSD for the OS
and frequently accessed files, and extra space for the rest.
Not as fast as a pure SSD but much cheaper and imho works well.

Greetings fellow Profoxers!
I see some external SSD drives on this page:
http://www.newegg.com/External-SSDs/SubCategory/ID-2022?Tid=11694
My laptop is a maybe 4 years old and is running out of local disk
space. I've got another laptop I can migrate to but I was thinking of
just extending and still using this one yet (because I love it) and
using an external HD would take care of my space issues...at least for
now...and give me another area to send backups.
My question: I know SSD drives are 20x faster reportedly, but would
that still apply if it's an EXTERNAL drive? I understand that using
the USB 3.0 port is better than the older USB 2.x ports and earlier
for transfer rates.
tia,
