Hi Skyguy,
Is Firefox better for SSD drives? I noticed you said you should use Firefox. I have been using Google Chrome. I have Win 7 64bit OS. Which Firefox is best for 64 bit OS's?
Thanks, Case1

When I enter the BIOS to look at the SATA drives, SSD and WDC 500gb Black, there is a grey section that seems to indicate how they were setup. The grey area for the SSD shows
PIO - 4
Async DMA - MWDMA2
Ultra DMA = UDMA5
Of course only 1 of the DMA settings can be chosen from the list.
Question:
Is it better to leave the settings at Auto or specifically set them to PIO 4 and UDMA5(only 1 option can be set)

Thanks for this, I ignored the cardinal rule, I created a thread without doing a search. My bad.

what card are you thinking about getting? you really dont need to do anything but turn off defragmentor like jake said. the tweaks are good because they will keep the ssd in top performance for longer and once you have done a CLEAN install and implimented the tweaks and have everything set you can make an image and you will have everything set in stone its not really as much work as it sounds like
