Yeap, it just uses half the number of chips as the 80GB version, which is why the throughput is slower. But its latencies and random reads should still be excellent resulting in stutter free use as an OS drive. This or a 30GB Vertex are probably the best options for the root partition on a home server where you just don't need SLC. Just don't use a swap partition/pagefile, which you really won't need with a decent amount of RAM.

Because I'm way too lazy to read something I can't afford while trying to work out a more pressing VPN issue. Thanks for correcting me :)

IIRC, it uses two Indilinx SSD controllers behind a JMicron RAID controller. I'd guess that's why it doesn't support Trim, because the OS is only seeing it as a single drive, and the JMicron controller really isn't suited for this usage. But then, I don't think there's a better choice right now, so we just have to live without Trim.

That's not entirely true, an MLC drive with good wear leveling algorithms can replace SATA drives in some nearline situations. Capacity and price tend to be the bigger question for those situations.

I agree completely!

I still say the better solution is to switch the control and caps lock key. That way both the fn and ctrl key are easily accessible, and the caps lock key is hidden out of the way near the infinite hell it should be in (the Windows key).

This is looking like the best answer here, considering the news of a 10.6" machine in FCC.

You might try a mechanical keyboard. I'm not making any medical claims, but there are those who believe that the good deep, firm travel is preventative. I do know that if I have to spend much time on a particularly mushy keyboard, I tend to have more problems.

It's even better once you make caps lock a control key, as it should be.
