I bought the Kingston SSDNOW 128GB notebook bundle.
So far I haven't experineced any problems including any stuttering with this drive, Kingston did an out standing job with the Jmicron based controller using 6 revisions of firmware to get there. I digress though, am using the trial version of disk keeper 2009 with hyperfast. Since this drive is a Gen 1 SSD I thought maybe I could get a little better write performance. Kingston tech support said that hyperfast shouildn't hurt the drives life but not to use diskkeeper more than once a month. The diskeeper manual states that hyperfast is used in manual and automatic mode. From the program menu though it appears that hyperfast only optimizes writes if the program is in automatic defrag mode for SSD.I am concerned that all this thing is a glorified defrag. Just want you guys info and opinions on this. Thanks!!
