Hello Listers,
 I've been looking at the varieties of hard drives and am amazed at
the difference in price per memory space of the solid state drives.
I'm wondering if any of you have experience with them and what are the
advantages to these drives vs. disc drives.

 Would it be beneficial to use one say, for an operating system
partion or for programs
and mix it with a less expensive disc drive for larger files? Or are
the benefits lessened by combining the two types?

 System I'm collecting parts for is based on a dual-core intel with a
1gig memory video card for gaming, video and music editing and
production, some 3-D rendering, animation and auto-cad.

 Interested in your opinions,
-Phil Williams-
