Apacer AS330 Panther Giveaway

[fresilo]

I need a new ssd because mine is full and I have no more space for my dream library. I also think that everyone should have an ssd because it is so much faster especially at startup, I couldn't live without mine.

[RabidJake]

I have have never had an ssd before but I've heard that they're fast and I would love to speed up the loading of my video games on steam. My current storage device is a nearly new 1tb WD Blue hard drive. But some games on steam take a while to load

[Inane]

Quite simple why I want a shiny new SSD, I don't have one and everyone is mocking me for it. Also the faster boot speed would probably be a good thing!

[xmx1024]

I still have a 5400RPM HDD in my main computer, and it's horrific. I want this SSD so I can install it in my laptop and move it's HDD to my NAS. Everybody needs an SSD because HDDs are sO SLOW

[TheOnlyWolfy]

I feel like everyone should have fast speed data storage nowadays, not just HDD's.

[Satirical_GG]

Being able to house everything under one SSD instead of 2 would be amazing.  Currently running a boot SSD + an external it would be nice not to have the problematic external

[mrkwint]

You don't know you need an SSD until you have used one! 

Everyone should have one!

[ambaal]

SSD is must have for sanity reasons. I have wasted more time on load screens and bootups than i want to think about. 

[Daniel Castro]

i want and ssd because here in mexico SSD are so expensive, it would be great if i can have one for free and improve the performance of my computer.

 

also thank you guys i think all of you are the best im always checking your videos on Youtube.

[Ethan Dera]

My current method of storage is just a regular hard drive that I feel is really slowing me down, and it would save me a ton of money if I won. Thanks for doing this giveaway!

[King of diamonds]

I'm building a new mini ITX rig and I need some fast data storage, who doesn't like solid state?

Ssd makes the world a better place it makes computers miracly fast from complete slow there amazing 

[Ino23]

life is short, time is money so why wait on a slow loading hdd

[FaithLV]

I want an SSD because my HDD is cracking and everybody should have one because they're freaking fast.

[drc00k3]

My OCZ 120GB SSD died and now I am stuck using a slow HDD. An SSD would get faster boot times for my computer and VMs.

[RosBoss]

I want the ssd because i like free stuff. If i don't win the ssd feel free to send me a new gpu. A new psu would be cool too but i think i have money for that.

[ping8]

I just upgraded my computer with a Radeon HD 5450 Graphics card. I have multiple hard drives and I/O speeds are bottlenecking my computer. an SSD is just what I need to take this computer's upgrade path to its logical limit before I finally have to succumb and upgrade the whole system to get any more performance out of it.

[boba99999]

1. I need a bigger SSD
2. i need fast storage

[ljocampo]

My current PC takes up to 15 minutes to boot up due to the really slow and old HDD, it would be nice t have a new SSD to replace that. And start being productive earlier and not half an hour after my work day has started.

[Timothy_Dillon]

Basically, I work for the University of North Dakota trying to research into climate change and agriculture and my 
Seagate Boot SSD has died. It is great sadness, such awful, much cry. A new SSD would put my back on track to graduate, save my research, and hopefully save the world some day.

1) The reason I want an SSD is because I'm a really young person entering the industry of computer software, I currently convert old computers and use them to run server instensive proccesses. However with literally no budget what so ever, I can take what I can get and giving me an SSD will not only benefit me in the long run but to improve the longevity of my "servers"

 

2) People should have access to these SSD's at a cheaper cost and in huge quantities like Hard drives. In this ever expanding world of technology progressing at a faster rate than anyone could imagine. It would not only benefit today's generation of computer enthusiasts but the future computer enthusiasts who will push the boundaries of technology, which is why with little gifts like having access to these SSD's in huge quantities is why everyone should have an SSD.

 

(tl;dr - SSD's are the future and I wanna be part of that future)

A PC is an electronic device, not an electromechanic one, IMHO. The more we can get rid of mechanical parts the better:

Less noise, less maintainance, less points of failure.

I fully agree. This also makes me ponder other possible passive cooling alternatives other than just having a heat sink or passively liquid cooling. 

[rsorujlall]

i really want to win. i'm trying to build my first gaming pc and could use this since i can't afford a ssd
