actually, i'm going to wait and see how users post about it - i am running win 7 but there will be enough "how to" tutorials on installing it - and to be frank, i'm actually thinking about going the clone route, cloning from my xp941 - i know that's probably sacriligous but a fresh install of Win 7 x64 plus all the updates, then then programs which i have currently installe (and their need to be "re-registered / activated" took me 11-12 hours last time. Then when I attempted to delete some odd empty partition (5.4 gb) that mysteriously appeared, when i hit "execute" or whatever the command was, my system crashed with a bsod and would not reboot nor repair with windows dvd. After two builds, and two attempts to remove that odd partition (one time using EaseUS Partition Manager and the 2nd using disk management, i just cloned my backup copy - in cloning back the xp941 wouldn't boot but did repair using the win 7 dvd, and booted fine after that.
I noticed this morning, doing my weekly clone, that using the latest EaseUS ToDo Backup, the program refused to backup because of the GPT partitioning, and instructed me to make a EaseUS WinPE emergency disk, and use it to create the clone. Suspect that was what corrupted the boot files on the previous clones.
I'm just hoping it ships in time for folks to be posting their impressions before Black Friday, otherwise i'll wait until after Xmas sales
i was just posting an idle remark about the 950 driver working for the sm951, but still unsure what the 951 being an OEM SSD precludes the 950's driver from working - after all, both are using the same controller.
