SSD & Win 7
I couldn't stand it, I HAD to have one!!! I just pulled the trigger on a new build that includes this
OCZ Agility Series SATA II 2.5" SSD 60Gb
I want to do this right the first time, so that's why I'm asking for clarification.
I need to install Windows 7 64 bit Upgrade on this drive. I will have to install XP first then do the upgrade just as I did the first time with my mechanical drive, right?
I intend to move the swap file to another drive and install everything else to other drives as well.
This drive does support trim, and its Win 7, but do I need to DO anything? What tweaks do you recommend?
P.S. I will update my signature later, sorry out of time. DONE!

As for tweaks: Move the page file to a mechanical disk, then use this utility.
I tried that the first time, and it would not take my "Key". I installed XP until it booted on its own, then installed the Windows 7 upgrade no problems. What did I miss? What did you do different/special?
And thanks for Link!;)
Turn off Auto defrag, disable indexing, disable superfetch.
Job done.
Didn't do anything special. Clean drive, no other drives on the system, just installed it. :O
I understand auto-defrag and indexing on an SSD. But superfetch? What's the reasoning behind disabling caching the most commonly-used executable code in RAM?
Yea, it would help if I were to read, don't mind the village idiot.;D
