wrst | I would like to do it again this weekend :) | 18:32 |
netritious | that would just be to much fun | 18:32 |
wrst | ha ha I would like to try and see :) | 18:33 |
netritious | :) | 18:33 |
netritious | wow SSDs have gotten cheap(er) | 18:40 |
* wrst wishes netritious had not brought that to his attention | 18:41 | |
netritious | around the $0.50 per gigabyte | 18:42 |
wrst | getting much much better | 18:45 |
wrst | I'm guessing eventually that will be the way even for large storage solutions? | 18:45 |
netritious | SSD? IDK. I don't think mechanical HDDs are going anywhere soon | 18:47 |
netritious | I guess it just depends on who is in charge of the IT budget | 18:49 |
netritious | how much stoarge do you need versus how much money can you spend | 18:49 |
netritious | wrst are you looking to upgrade? | 18:55 |
wrst | netritious: no I'm not I have a SSD in my laptop and a spinner for storage | 18:58 |
wrst | but more speed is always better :) | 18:58 |
netritious | ah I'm upgrading my laptop from spinner to ssd | 18:58 |
wrst | I replaced the optical drive with the old 640GB spinner and put a 120GB SSD in place of the spinner | 18:59 |
wrst | so the optical drive is out for me | 18:59 |
netritious | only SATAII on my laptop interface and drive is SATAIII, but whatever...beats spinner any day | 19:00 |
netritious | that's a cool setup wrst | 19:00 |
wrst | on an older laptop but works well | 19:00 |
netritious | hm wonder if I can do that | 19:00 |
wrst | I'm sata II also | 19:00 |
wrst | they sale those adpaters as long as it is a SATA optical drive | 19:01 |
netritious | mine isn't new... refurb Dell E6410 but I like it | 19:02 |
wrst | mine is a $499 special asus from about 3 or 4 years ago :) | 19:02 |
wrst | I'm really thinking I might go with a macbook next time | 19:02 |
netritious | all my laptops were older than that. sold or gave them away and now have 3x E6410 for <$800 | 19:03 |
wrst | nice, I'm not seeing enough advances really that warrants buying tcomputer parts very often | 19:04 |
netritious | I am once again, after a fifteen year hiatus, trying to move my desktop to a notebook :S | 19:05 |
wrst | ha ha | 19:06 |
wrst | I have no desktop any more | 19:06 |
wrst | well I have my old desktop running freenas | 19:06 |
netritious | I'm just tired of being tied to my desk, but I think the laptop with some upgrades will do ok as a replacement. | 19:08 |
netritious | will also end up with spare parts for the other two laptops, and if my laptop dies, I can just move my ram and HDD.. unless it's the RAM or HDD that dies lol | 19:11 |
netritious | with any luck this will be here today... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148821 | 19:13 |
netritious | this is what sold me.... power consumption when active? 0.15W | 19:15 |
wrst | sweet | 19:16 |
wrst | very nice | 19:16 |
netritious | that and upgrading ram to 8GB, and will try to install qubes first. will see what happens from there. | 19:17 |
wrst | I'm running 8GB of ram but a much smaller ssd but its very nice | 19:18 |
netritious | I like VM's, and a healthy dose of snapshots...on my desktop with 256GB SSD it's fast, but to small | 19:18 |
netritious | speak of the angel... http://imgur.com/uW1RUzO | 19:26 |
wrst | sweet | 19:27 |
