Acer Timeline 3810T or 4810T with SSD ?

[dannnnn]

i think the poster is trying to suggest that he could connect an ssd to the mini-sata connector whilst still keeping the original spinning-platter hard disk in place?? so have two disks connected??

if you could do this it would be awesome::
ssd for o/s and programs = speedy system
big slow hdd for media files = great storage

best of both worlds!

One experiment to try is to boot to Linux off an usb-stick (eg, puppylinux). You can verify SATA-2 speeds with 'dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/zero bs=1024K count=1024" -- it will report read speeds when finished.

If your configuration is like mine, you'll find Linux supports SATA-2 but both Windows drivers only manage SATA-1.

Whatever happened to this thread ?

Is there any way to run the Acer 4810tg in SATA2 with Windows7 ?

Or do I need to go back to Ubunto to be able to achieve FULL SPEEED ?

Thanks
