What difference will an SSD make to my laptop?

2 comments, most recent: imaginarynumber said on : "

That's a good point. mind you my laptop had a RAID of 4 SSDs, never been sure what the accepted wisdom is wrt defragging SSDs, I guess given the limited read/write life it might be a bad thing?

It would be interesting to see how much lower the power consumption of a SSD is on a laptop in a "real life" senario

How to uninstall Windows 8

51 comments, most recent: Chris Howard said on : "

Our new Acer came with Windows 8 pre-installed and it's AWFUL!
We desperately want to get shot of it. Can we buy Win7 or even Vista and install that instead. Anything will be preferable to the ridiculously unfriendly and awkward Windows 8.

BlackBerry 10 Price in UK: Q10 & Z10

Really, you don't see the heading (and subheading) as completely misleading? Why mention a product that you have no information for? If you're going to update as new info becomes available, then update the heading to match.

All snark between you and the previous commenters aside, it is terrible journalistic practise.

What difference will an SSD make to my laptop?

2 comments, most recent: Murray Snudge said on : "

Is that completely fair though? The HDD was three years old and 'getting sluggish' so wouldn't it be a fair test to defrag it first as the file fragmentation was causing it to be slow and the SSD isn't really bothered about that?
The SSD will still be faster but haven't you exaggerated the differences?

Netgear N150 Wireless Modem Router DGN1000 review

3 comments, most recent: anothermouse said on 10 March 2011: "We installed 53 of these systems as a trial around the UK. Of these about 2-3 failed daily, rejecting connections from either via the WAN or LAN. Upgraded to latest version (0.35ww) does not resolve problem. Issue is reset by manually power cycling the router. Unsuitable for the high reliability that we require. Avoid!"

FreeNAS review

0 comments, most recent: WrkWatchr said on 12 February 2011: "Effective, efficient and very stable. Works great on every old system I tried it on. Excellent platform to use to stream video/media to all 10 other devices on my network with only a 1ghz MB and 1 MB memory. Only complaint is the software RAID instructions need work."

Virgin Media review

6 comments, most recent: Simon7063 said on 20 January 2011: "Originally on the Telewest 512Kbps package. I have had most of the BB packages up to current 50Mbps. Down time can be frustrating, but to be fair its very rare for the service to drop much under the advertised speed at each service point that I have had and only need an engineer out once in 9 years. In general very happy and no plans to change."
