The rechargeables you listed have higher capacity but the main advantage of Eneloop batteries is that they hold charge very well while idle.
BTW there are numerous brands with higher capacity than Eneloops.
I did not have any problems using F4 in WHS v1. I had to do rather convoluted procedure to align partition (creating numerous registry entries and some files) but it worked perfectly. Eventually I migrated to WHS 2011 where F4 is giving me consistent 100+ MB/s read performance (from client PC...
Non free version of Acronis TI does not partitition SSD properly as well. There are several posts on Acronis forums that state that TI maintains alignment only when whole drive is restored. If original alignment is correct it would stay the same after a restore.
If only one partition is...
I would not count on it. File system is rather tricky business. Microsoft managed to succeed only once, with NTFS. All the promises of new object oriented file systems and in-memory databases for files never got off the ground. Even DE is half baked. If you enable shadow copy to get versioning...
Somehow hard drive manufacturers keep taking turns with series that fail more often than average. At one point Seagate was great with 7200.8 and 7200.7 series but after that had several duds, including firmware disasters in several series. Western Digital was successful with Raptors (and VR) and...
Looks like numbers as swapped between read and write and have Mbps instead MBps (Should be Megabytes, not Megabits). Somehow Intel SSDs are rather slow in sequentual writes but this speed is not that important. Most disk operations on a PC have random access pattern. Article covering Intel G2...
Based on the benchmarks alone it a very good deal. It is substantially faster than Intel and the price difference with 80GB G2 per 1GB is only 25%.
On the other hand reading OCZ support forum for SandForce SSDs gives me a pause. There are so many reports of drives dying unexpectedly and not...
This is an easy one. Imagine that a drive has storage cells, numbered 1 to N. If you save a big file that needs 10 cells and start storage on cell 11 the drive would keep writing to cell 11, 12 and so on until cell 20 (sequential write).
Now imagine that you run some process that reads from 10...
Based on this page http://www.anandtech.com/show/2974/crucial-s-realssd-c300-an-update-on-my-drive read performance drops to below 20 MB/s. So it might be the fastest drive on the market but it would stay this way for a few days only, until you write 256GB of data to it. At that point it would...
Actually it is relatively fast drive that does not make much noise. I have it in WHS with 2 WD Green drives and it is stays at the same temperature.
Review at TH: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/1tb-hdd-storage,2563.html
I installed this drive in WHS (HP EX485) and it runs cooler (31C) than WD 1TB EADS (33C). Considering that it is higher performance drive (7200rpm vs. 5400rpm) it is rather impressive. Noise level is similar to WD Green drives.
Intel 80GB G1 (Dane rebranded version) is already below $2/gb without any rebates. Considering that Intel SSD performance does not drop much with use makes the issue of TRIM support less important.
Trim improves performance but does not do anything with drive life. In a nutshell Trim makes unused by a file system blocks of flash memory empty so next write does not require moving existing data, releasing a block and finally a write. See SSD Relapse article...
