I work in IT and I have a lot of experience in most fields but one area where my knowledge is lacking is in Solid State Drives.
I noted that online, you can get 1.8 inch SSD's that are around 80GB for a fraction of the cost of a new 2.5 inch SSD with the same storage space.
I know that you can get adapters to allow these 1.8 mSATA and MicroSATA Drives to interface with regular SATA.
So my question is, Is there any reason that I haven't seen to why I shouldn't invest in one of these SSD's just to load the OS off of (Like "Oh you won't ever get the BIOS to boot from that..."), or is this actually a decent idea?
Thanks in advance
