Has anyone actually used a SSD in a Centos setup?
Yes.
I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to use a new SSD for moving all the disk i/o to, that Linux likes to do so often. Plus putting SWAP onto a decent SSD should speed things up somewhat.
Just buy fastest ocz drive than you can find from stores.
Here's a short video of a laptop fitted with a SSD drive booting macOS, compared to a similar laptop booting from the standard HDD.
The laptop with the SSD boots and loads some apps in 28 seconds. The other one takes twice as long.
So, slow? My macbook pro with ocz ssd boots much faster :)
Thanks for your reply Eero.
Do you have a link to the specs for your exact OCZ SSD model please, so I can take a look and compare it with the OWC drives? What size is the SDD in GB?
Regards,
Keith
