New SSD, any tips appreciated.

[Deleted member 217926]

I am new to having an SSD and was hoping for some helpful advice on this : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227551
I just could not pass up on the sale. I have never run an SSD before and will do a bit of researching between now and when UPS gets it here but any tips, tricks or just general advice will be appreciated. I plan to upgrade platforms (probably LGA 1366) here in the next 6 months or so and I figured this was one upgrade I could take with me.

I got the larger version so I can make full use of it. I want to run pagefile ( advantages-disadvantages?) and at least most of my games on it. I understand TRIM and keeping the drive no more than about 80% full to avoid slowdowns. It is the cheapest I have seen the 120GB models ( I almost got a GSkill Phoenix Pro but missed it's sale price) so I figured why not. I would still appreciate any advice with people who have SSDs of this size........what do you put on them ect. What about Office?
