New lower prices. Update your favorite X4x with more capacity or performance.

Does the Samsung SSD require an adapter for an X40?

sjthinkpader · **Posted:** Sat Nov 20, 2010 12:17 am

Yes, these in my list all use ZIF connectors and require an adapter. Only the original 20/30/40/60GB Hitachi drives use pin connectors.

Bump, plenty left for your X40/X41/X41t.

frankiepankie · **Posted:** Fri Nov 26, 2010 8:56 am

Do you have a type/model number for the SSD ? And maybe you could supply a picture of the SSD and ZIF adapter?

Maybe i am interested for putting it in my X41 Tablet

I also sent you a PM about shipping to the Netherlands (Europe)

sjthinkpader · **Posted:** Thu Dec 02, 2010 1:06 am

Sure, I am travel so will PM that to you when I get home on Sunday.

sjthinkpader · **Posted:** Sat Dec 18, 2010 8:39 pm

Still quite a few available.

sjthinkpader · **Posted:** Sun Jan 02, 2011 8:45 pm

Price drop for these X40/X41/X41t upgrades.

hey sjthinkpader....
I am evaluating what you have!
how much would be the shipping of a hard drive to EU?

I think it should be about US$13-$14.

Hello sjthinkpader

Any drives for X40 still available? (I need something a bit faster and larger than the built-in 40GB Hitachi, but funds are limited.)

Thanks

sjthinkpader · **Posted:** Sun Jan 30, 2011 1:55 pm

The Samsung HS081HB is actually pretty fast given that it is a single platter design. It is faster than the 2 platter HS122JB. The 60GB Hitachi is a bit faster than your 40GB.

Serendipity · **Posted:** Sun Jan 30, 2011 3:54 pm

Thanks for your note and performance info. Do I understand correctly that this means the following options are still available:

HS081HB [80GB]
HS122JB [120GB]
60GB Hitachi [assume HTC426060]

What about the Samsung 32GB SSD SLC? (Smaller, but would be tempting, too.)

sjthinkpader · **Posted:** Mon Jan 31, 2011 10:29 am

Yes, all 4 options are available.

Serendipity · **Posted:** Mon Jan 31, 2011 10:36 am

Forgot to ask - how has the feedback been on those 32GB Samsung SSDs? Are these reliable, even over time? (In other words - have you heard back from folks you have provided with one of these - SSDs, that is?)

The Samsungs are GREAT. Had a blast with one I bought, made my (since sold) X40 fly...also tested in a couple of newer machines with a SATA adapter, very good performance in my book...YMMV.

Re: Sandisk 32GB SSD Module quoted in the other thread (http://cgi.ebay.ch/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie ... 0641154199, USD 60): From the performance table (viewtopic.php?f=3&t=71881&start=60, Posted: Wed Mar 03, 2010 8:40 am) it looks like the Sandisk is about twice as fast on random writes (512kb) than the Samsung - or is that another Sandisk module? (The model number SDU-5B-032G seems to indicate that's the one listed in the performance table, though).

I wasn't aware that the SSDs differ that much on performance?

sjthinkpader · **Posted:** Sat Feb 05, 2011 2:06 am

That is true, the Sandisk is faster in random writes and Samsung is faster in sequential writes.
