    I bought an OCZ 30GB SSD and it came with the newest 1.4 Firmware with trim support. I installed windows 7 pro 64 on an amd 45nm tricore with 4gb of ddr3 and an ati 5770 video card. Windows loads many times faster, and programs load almost instantly, virus scans and spyware scans complete amazingly fast. For $95 with a rebate and a little tweaking this was the best performance upgrade I've made in years!

    Got any numbers with that?How fast does windows 7 load?

    Virus scans will complete fast on an empty 30gig drive.:)

    I timed the boot with Win 7 Pro 64, I boot in 12 seconds flat.
