Hi Folks:
Solid State Drives? Is this the right forum? Isn't that hardware and this forum is about... C++?
Yea, this is the right forum.
I've been developing projects with 100K plus lines of C++ code on my tired 6 or 7 year old PC. A full compile can take over 15 minutes!
I'm in the market for a new PC. I want a rocket.
Just a new I7 processor and new fast drive will get me far, but I want more.
So, I'm looking at solid state drives, but I'm not sure what I want, or how to configure one to boost massive C++ compiles.
What SSDs are you guys and gals using?
How big?
What's on your SSD, what's in your hard drive?
System and Visual Studio on the SSD?
C++ Projects on the SSD?
I'll want anything sensitive, like my code, on a Truecrypt encrypted partition. In case my shiny new PC grows legs and walks out the door.
Any ideas on how to move forward are appreciated.
Thanks
Larry
