So Friday I decided to finally upgrade my Photo PC to Win7.
Saturday I obtained a small fast HD for the system and a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate.
After two days of update HELL, (can someone please tell me why Microsoft has created an updating system that's so buggy that it tries to install already installed updates multiple times).
I decided to buy a SSD from which to run the OS and primary programs , and bought the cheapest 240gb SSD I could find.
The improvement in performance is phenomenal. Even though the drive is cheap, (did I mention that?), it /seems/ to be hundreds of times faster than the mechanical drive. Which will still serve a purpose. It's going to be a live backup of the finished system, just in case.
Now all I have to do is install all my data HDs and reinstall my tools, but reboots, and configurations take orders of magnitude less time.
Next upgrade will be to max out the memory. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
