Solid State Drives Are Here!!!

Posted on October 19, 2010 Posted in: Blog

Need an upgrade?  Computer booting real slow?  Getting your pc to boot (or start up) faster has always been a major goal for pc enthusiasts and home users.  Sometimes it takes up to 5 minutes for some.  This could be caused by viruses, corrupt files, bad drivers, or even a bad hard drive.  Well, your worries are over.  The Parlour now carries Solid State Hard Drives.  This is the single most significant upgrade you can make.  The Solid State Drives have no moving parts or discs.  They are, in essence, ram drives.  Depending on your motherboard, you can have boot times as fast as 5 seconds!  They have serial ATA connection and perform faster when plugged into sata 2 and sata 3 ports.  Having experienced them myself, I can definitely say they are fast.  Being plugged into a regular sata port, we acheived boot times between 10 and 15 seconds.  I have a feeling these will be the next big thing in pc upgrades.  So, if you have time to mow the lawn or shovel the driveway before your computer boots, come in to The Parlour with your trades and pick up a Solid State Drive, you won’t be sorry.
