@xeim

You can't overclock with a "H67" board. Only possible with "P" or "Z".

Just got my new Crucial M4 128GB SSD.

:V

My mainboard is bottlenecking the SSD since I "only" have SATA 300.

What a coincidence, this just arrived for me:

I'm in luck: the 0009 firmware is already installed on my SSD.

Also the case is amazing.

As you can see, not much has changed since last time, except for the spot on my desk I dedicated to my Arduino and related electronics.

Also sorry for the cheap panorama.

My specs are below. Picture the Thermaltake Armor A60 case with all of the components inside. There's my rig.

Case looks HORRIBLE in its press shots, but looks kinda nice in real life.

Also, imagine MSI's GT680R gaming laptop, but with fingerprints all over it. There's my laptop.

Exact same SSD but I have it connected to a SATA 600 port :V

I've never seen a SATA3 6Gbps port being called "SATA 600". Not sure what the "600" is for, as 6Gbps is exactly 750MB/s, not 600MB/s.

The internet disagrees. SATA 600 might not be an official name but it seems it's used plenty on hardware sites for the 6Gbps SATA interface.

How do you guys like that SSD? It seems fairly cheap for a 128 GB one. Last time I checked not every SSD performed that well, plus not all of them were stable (I think OCZ SSD's had some problems, for example).

I've never seen a website use "SATA 600" lingo. But hey! Whatever floats your boat, I suppose.

So far it's performing well, but I don't have any prior experience to compare it to.

Agreed. PC boot is done in ~28 seconds, software starts superfast etc. etc. Like a SSD! :V

But it's recommend to update the firmware to 0009 (incase you have the old 0002 like me), because it improves the SSD a bit more and boot times are lower.
