Its so fast that it types before I even press the keys on the keyboard.. :)
Ok the packaging is good and as small as it needs to be. Fitting it was no problem it took like 10 minutes at most. You have the option to basically 'clone' your old drive, but I dont think youd have a hard drive this small in size which would enable you to clone it. So I opted for a fresh copy on the drive and my baby is flying :p.
It makes a huge impact on performance. Its price has fallen like 50 pounds since I bought it and I am so pleased I am thinking of buying a second one. Installing stuff is much faster, overall responsiveness is probably even better than my imac. It starts up as fast as an imac too now. so basically as soon as I log in to windows I am ready to start working no more waiting for the system to login.
I dont know what else to say. This is definately going to become the next standard for storage once it becomes a bit cheaper. However, as I said even now its worth it!!!

Bought one of these for a 5 year old Acer Aspire with an AMD 2.2 processor - machine was still good but performance/responsiveness with Office 2010/Windows 7 Home Premium left a little to be desired.
The bundle is great value - with the Acronis software and USB Caddy included:
1) Put the the SSD into the USB caddy and connect to a spare USB port on the PC
2) Change the boot sequence of the PC that the SSD is due to be installed on to CD ROM as the 1st disk
3) Stick the Acronis CD (part of the kit) in the CD drive of the PC that the disk is due to be installed on and reboot
4) The Acronis app identifies the boot disk/partition and creates a perfect image on the SSD.
5) Take the SSD out of the caddy and install into the PC itself - I didn't bother with the supplied drive rails and attached the disk to the case side with some double-sided tape.
Job done - on paper these drives may not be the quickest out there in terms of data transfer rate but if I say that the Office 2010 apps open before you have released the mouse button you will have an idea of how quick they are.
Incredibly good value at sub £100 for 96gb.

Used this as a replacement for the standard SATA drive in a Lenovo T61. I used the acronis software to image my existing drive to the SSD. Pulled the existing drive replaced it with the SSD and everything just worked but a bit faster and with 10-20% better battery life. Great product
