Thanks for the additional info. As I figured, they got most of the kinks worked out by now and we got some dependable SSDs to buy. I found a 240GB for a little over $42.00 USA. Not bad at all. For those curious: Sandisk SDSSDA240GG26 Should last me a good long while. It's the /home that keeps growing. o_O Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/Home2-Home2 8.1T 5.4T 2.7T 68% /home Dale :-) :-)
