Ever wonder how SSDs perform in the “real world?”

The chaps over at MadShrimps.be have put to test two identical laptops, each using an identical cloned drive image. One has a standard Hitachi laptop HDD (RPM not specified) and the other has an OCZ Vertex SSD. They’ve done the sensible thing and set them upon performing tasks simultaneously, making a video of each test suite available on YouTube. The difference is quite significant, but is it enough to offset the additional costs that a solid state disk demands? See for yourself!

A duel!

Battle Royale!
