Success story here:
Yesterday I took the plunge and installed a new Corsair Force GT 120 in my Hack to replace a WD Caviar Black 1 TB as the boot drive. I also installed a new WD Caviar Black 2 TB as the "User" drive to store pretty much everything except the OS and some select items (like a couple of work VMs).
I used Lx2Mac's guide to help me move my pre-existing 700GB \Users folder to my new drive! Big props to him!
I'm pleased with the upgrade - it's fast as hell and the whole thing went pretty smoothly. It doesn't benchmark quite as fast as the PR states - oh, well.
TRIM isn't enabled, but as I understand it the chipset in this drive handles garbage collection pretty well, please let me know if any of you think otherwise.
Thank you all!
