I have a black macbook intel 2GHz and as my GCSEs are nearly over I was thinking of what to do with the "incentives" I have been promised. I decided that I put a SSD drive into it. This is the drive I'm thinking of clicky.I am not really concerned by space as I am only using 22GB currently. My only dilemma is that I am not sure if it will work. I think its the correct size for the bay. I have seen many people telling their tales of woe on forums but they are all using 10.4 which is what I think their problem is because you can buy macs with SSDs in them and I have seen many videos on youtube of ultra fast start up times clickyMy question to you is, will it work?

Don't know if it will work but do know that Leo Laporte from This Week In Tech installed a Corsair SSD www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_ss_w_h_?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=corsair+ssd&x=0&y=0into his MacBook Pro and raves about the speed improvement Jealous if you do it - BB

Thanks, thats encouraging. I think Ill go with the OCZ one as thats more in my price range and actual need of space. If it fails for this then I will get one of those racks to mount it in a 3.5 inch bay and stick in a dark side machine and put Windows 7 on it an make that the ultra fast booting PC.
So the score so far is Yes 1 - No 0
