Review by gman1 for Rating: I chose the Corsair Nova over the well known OCZ Agility because of the hgeihr read speed . I have been using it for 3 days with the Fedora 11 Linux operating system(gnome desktop) . SSDs with the Indilinx controllers are supposed to work much faster with linux ext4 than windows ntfs' format .format(my system/HP laptop):/boot partition ext3 format(200meg)/swap partition swap' format(4gigs)/(root) partition ext4 format(8gigs)/home partition ext4 format(the rest 47gigs)boot time with the old fujitsu(5400rpm) was 30 seconds to login screen/10 second to start(total 40 seconds) .boot time with corsair nova is 12 seconds to login screen/2 seconds to start(total 14 seconds) .In 2 months I will switch to Fedora 13 with 2.6.33 kernel . Than I can format /boot with ext4 for faster boot, and I will also be able to use the TRIM control that is supported by this drive .Everything is fast now . Software updates install like lightning . Desktop response with gnome is instant now . Firefox loads cached pages super fast to make browsing even better(wasn't expecting that) .I am sure this drive would be just fine with WINDOWS also .I will NEVER go back to hard drives .
