As we've said before and we'll continue to preach at any opportunity we get, the biggest bottleneck in modern systems is the traditional platter hard drive; after using an SSD in your system you'll wonder how you ever survived without one previously. T...
Abstract: Posted in ReviewsRecently I was building myself a new Windows-based computer and the ADATA people came along and offered me a review unit from their new S511 line of Solid State Drives (SSD). If you’ve never heard of an SSD think of it as a USB Flash D...
