Hi,
Just wanted to share som pics from my conversion to 120GB SSD disc from OWC. I also changed from Tiger to Leopard (OSX 10.4.11 to 10.5.8).
Change in performance:
BEFORE (OSX 10.4.11)
Startup until login: approx 1 min
Startup until I have opened Safari: approx 2:05 (incl login, and I start Safari as fast as I can)
AFTER (OSX 10.5.8)
Startup until login: ca 35-40s
Startup until I have opened Safari: approx 1 min (incl login, and I start Safari as fast as I can)
Apart from that programs start much faster and I have a lot more space on my hard drive ;-)
My brother thought it would be quicker than it became, but thought that the ATA-buses might be the neck of the bottle.
Is it worth the money? If money talks, then no. But I like my powerbook and it still satisfies many of my day to day needs. And, it's the best looking computer yet
