SSD

[vu pham]

I just changed my hard drive in my desktop to SSD. My first experience 
is it is *faster*. Netbeans used to take about 10-12 seconds for 
loading, now it is only 7-9 seconds. Not sure if this speed will last 
long. Some people say the ssd write performance will degrade after the 
partition have files spread over.

And this SSD is just a so-so one, not the Intel Extreme Edition, which 
is still the fastest ( and most expensive ) in the market.

I also changed the IO scheduler to NOOP.
