i recently purchased one of these: http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=179_1088&item_id=048901 but some calculations now suggest i'll need at least a 256G SSD for what i want, so while i unwrapped the drive, it's never been used or installed in anything, so if anyone wants it for $75, first come, first served. i can bring it to the next OCLUG meeting, or however you want to do this. and if anyone has good experiences with not crazy expensive 256G SSDs, feel free to jump into the conversation. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
