Reviving an Old Warhorse

I’m giving my early 2008 Macbook Pro a storage transplant in the form of an OWC 115GB Solid State Drive.

Expect a full review next week.

    Looking forward to this review… Planning on building a server, SSD included… and curious about them…. as well, curious on how you’re going to use that old machine… booting from the SSD? I mean… where are you putting OS and data?

      Thanks Jose. This is the machine I use for work – I’m selectively adding only the apps and docs I need to use on a regular basis. Documents that are no longer actively being used will be copied to an external drive and deleted from the SSD.
      My full review is coming soon, but the speed increase in terms of app launches and boot time is astounding.

Tell me what you think!
