High quality playback available! Also checkout part 1. How this test was done: -SSD was clone from the orginial 4200 RPM HDD using True Image 12 -Test performed on the HDD was replicated on the SDD -Only one program was allow to run at a time -SSD video was cut to compensate for the long HDD video, though initial loading time of each program was uncut. Comments: -I have a lot of startup programs and drivers, which may have affected bootup and shutdown time. -I could not accurately test webpage loading because my internet can get unstable at times -My benchmark differs from the claim benchmark, partly because we are using different machines -Premiere Pro loaded slower than normal on the SSD video -Fingerprint reader loaded slower than normal on the HDD video -It is 2 years warranty not lifetime. Pros -Crazy fast -No studdering -Slightly lighter -Aluminium casing -No moving parts -Completely silent -Should outlast my lifetime -Laptop now “runs” faster than my quadcore desktop! Cons -Heat is not significantly reduced (may actually feel hotter because aluminum disperse heat faster) -Power consumption is not significantly reduced (may actually fluctuate battery life more because CPU has to work harder to keep up with the SSD) -Writing speed is not as advertise base on my benchmark, but still faster than traditional HDD nonetheless
