Laptop PCs and SSDs: a perfect match.
In addition to being great productivity tools, notebook PCs do two things well — take abuse, and run down their batteries. A solid-state drive can give you the confidence that your data is safe if your computer takes a spill, and since they have no moving parts, their power consumption is lower than typical hard drives. You'll go longer without recharging.
The easy upgrade path
If you want to upgrade your laptop PC's performance and reliability with minimal hassle, the Force Series 3 Notebook Upgrade Kit is for you.
The kit's SSD uses the universal SATA interface and is compatible with the vast majority of notebooks that have removable hard drives. This includes not only notebooks designed to work with drives that are 9mm in height, but also the newer, slimmer notebooks that require the new 7mm standard.
The included USB-to-SATA cable connects to your notebook's USB 2 or USB 3 port. Insert the included disc into your optical drive, run the software (it's compatible with both Windows and Mac OS X), and it will copy the entire contents of your hard drive to your new SSD. You won't need to reinstall your operating system or applications.
Remove your old hard drive and snap in the Force Series 3 SSD and restart. On most notebooks, the only tool you'll need is a screwdriver. You're done!
Solid-state drives: One of the best notebook PC performance investments you can make.
You'll be amazed at the improvement over traditional hard drive access times the first time you restart your notebook, and for virtually everything you do with it. System startup, application load times, data transfers, and even shutdown times are all faster.
Your system will be more responsive, and you'll be more productive.
Add up all the time you spend all day waiting for your computer — starting up, launching applications, saving large files and documents — and it can be significant. Using a PC can be a lot more enjoyable when it's not always making you wait.
