Hi bigdogchris. I just saw in a post on this forum that you were able to extract the DigitalPersona 5.0.2 installer from a Dell notebook recovery partition. I have a Dell Vostro 3750 and completely wiped it because of all the bloatware it comes with. It may be a stretch but, if you still have it, could you send it to me? Thanks in advance!
I don't have enough posts to reply in that forum, but to answer your statement on <$200 good SSDs... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231378&cm_re=phoenix_pro-_-20-231-378-_-Product
