I'd love to win one for a media PC I am building my family. Real talk though: Everybody NEEDS an SSD. Its faster, lasts longer, is harder to break, and is smaller. 10/10 Would boot off again.

I'm trying to build a new system for my son. He is curently using my 12 year old system that I bought at Best Buy. A new SSD would go a long way in helping with this.

I want to see if I can tell the difference between this and my intel 730 series boot drive. Everybody should be booting from SSD!

My brother's computer takes longer than two minutes to FULLY boot... A SSD would be a life-changer for him.

My old 60 GB patriot inferno is full to the point that i have to install software on other drives, and i would be great if they were all on one drive.

A system without an SSD nowadays is just like a PC from ten years ago. SSD is POWER! :P

1 SSD is never enough, 2 is better :P

I want the ssd, because it takes toooo long to build some big projects, and it kinda drives me mad sometimes :) and yeah - everyone should switch to ssd as their main sys drive, no matter what are they using their PC for (even news reading becomes nice and smooth, because of cache read/write).

I would like the SSD because I work at a tech support help desk at my college, and the computer I'm forced to use just recently got CryptoWall on it (from an unsuspecting flash drive another employee put into it) and now they need to replace the HDD. BUT, if I could get this SSD, they'd let me put that in instead, and that'd be AWESOME. A lot of the students working here disagree that an SSD would show a performance boost. Let's prove them wrong!

My current hard drive is almost 8 years old now and it's loud. An SSD would eliminate that annoying clicking sound.

I only have a 640 GB HDD so getting a nearly 40% much faster storage increase would be wonderful! =^]

Never owned an SSD before, and my current mechanical drive is slowing down significantly (takes at least 4 minutes to boot,) so an SSD would benefit me massively! Best of luck to everyone. :D

Well I really believe that in just a matter of time it's going to be a sin not to boot your stuff from an SSD.

Besides, these cost a considerable amount of money here in Brazil,

 

In reality I'm just desperate, please send help!

 

Love  y'all from LMG xD

I am building a new Server for Game Hosting and a NAS, so a quick cache would by nice. I think a SSD is a Musthave, especially if you are still on mechanical harddrive. It makes EVERYTHAAANG faster!

I successfully hacked 127.0.0.1! Now I cant turn on my computer :/

I want an SSD so I can play my games at blazing fast speeds with boot times quicker than I can say "Which key to load my BIOS?"

An SSD is such a life changing experience.
Just using one, on my old ancient times PC rig, using it just for the OS and the constantly changing game title it has done SO MUCH.
It not only sped up my PC but also made it so much more enjoyable to use.
No more windows loading screen, no more leaving the computer on because i'm too lazy/don't have time to wait for to turn on in the morning,
games run so much faster, files transfer so easily... figure out the rest yourself and get a damn SSD already!! its awesome! DO IT! NOW!

It does wonders on an old rig and refines an high-end one.

Everyone should have an SSD or more in their system because of their high speed reads/writes. Less moving components in your system and providing better performance is something we all wanted. It may be expensive, but it's definitely worth it! It's fast, it's small and it's definitely wayyy better than those HDDs. It's definitely something revolutionary. No moving parts = one less thing to worry about our storage ! We will never have to worry about disk speeds affecting our performance since we have SSDs. Capacity of SSDs may be little now and getting higher capacities SSDs may be expensive, but I believe it will be better and a standard issue in the future.

Well first of all, SSDs are not over rated; because they are REALLY GOOD for speed and fast OS start time.

Second I only have a HDD in my system and I am desperate to get a new SSD :( but I wish I can get one, Thanks Apacer much love, such WAW :)
