Usb SSD boot drive for laptop
Last response: in Storage
First off is it even possible for a laptop to boot from usb HDD?
Second would be the mounting problems
I came across the zalman s series(usb2.0 and sata) and was wondering if it would be possible to boot from it and keep my internal HDD for storage?
I use my laptop for couch browsing so I could just use double sided tape to mount![:pt1cable:]( ":pt1cable:")

Why even spend money on an SSD if all you will use it for is "couch browsing"? Waste of money if you ask me.Got an oppourtunity to get a 64gb ssd for $50 so I wanted to find something to put it in.
I have a htpc setup but dont think it would be as useful.
My couch browsing laptop is running an older processor(turion x2) and I feel it will help things feel snappier.
My laptop does support usb boot but any concerns about the usb cable coming out or mounting issues.
