Worked on acer aspire netbook,a mid sized HP,and my destop.
First off,desktop wont play nice with the SSD,dont know why,but just doesnt want to recognize it 90% of time.So it will probably go into the late model toshiba BIL gave to Mrs.
Tried the SSD with linux in netbook,but really overkill,there,all I do is surf with it.So took HD from HP and into netbook.YES,very fast,but just isnt needed there,still boots linux fast enough with what little is on comp.
Netbook I killed,dropped it twice,broke screen,replaced that then it just wouldnt boot a couple months later and it was stuffed away.Dog decided to eat power cord and new model was about 40 bucks,now 6 dollars.
Works great now,linux loaded right up and all worked.
The HP,it has a broadcam wireless,and thats propriatory code,HP wont share.So its loaded up,speeding away great with SSD,but no internet wireless.Found a linux work around called B43,they had 4 different programs.I tried one,did nothing,so put in all four,on reboot it loaded(by itself thank God because I sure as heck cant code) the wireless driver now its just Aces,very cool.
I know ZILCH on loading Linux,BIL usually sets me up,gave me some discs and said go for it,so I did.
I think the other SSD I have linux loaded to will go into the Toshiba.
So got 4 comps running great,would like to speed up desktop but it might not happen.
Rescued one from dead,Sped up another....Major cool.And only took 16 hours and an all nighter to do it,used to that by now,its always an overnight if not 2 day thing when I touch comps.
Next time BIL up will get him to fine tune passwords and customize desktops and security when he comes up,he is a Linux pro and writes code even, really knows what he is doing.
Pretty cool,eh?
