My i7 boots up at a blink of an eye...

That’s probably because you don’t actually shut it down but suspend!

It’s this “system productivity” that I’m talking about!

I think an SSD will boost anyone's productivity but after that ,...

Yeah, they're good for W7 or better systems.

I shutdown everynight unless I am rendering...and it still boots win 7 64 bit at a blink of an eye...

it actually boots at the speed as my surface pro i5, 4GB and 128GB ssd...running win 8.1 pro 64 bit...

They are good for XP too ... XP doesn't support trim for keeping the SSD optimized, but there are some easy ways around that. The first computer I installed an SSD had XP on it. It worked perfectly fine and much faster than the 7200rpm drive or even the 10000rpm drive I previously had on that same computer.

Sotos, are you in Limassol by any chance ? If yes please pm me your tel number.

And do you then get the message “Operating System not found!” ?

Btw, what is it you’re "rendering" overnight?

I'm sure it works but I wouldn't use it on an XP machine because it's not meant to!

XP is too stupid to set it up properly and it runs a couple of internal TSRs that are incompatible with it.

It'll work but in a bad way and its life will be shortened. Ah well...
