quick and dirty:
friend gave me two laptops to fix. brought them both, one rocked, the other i missed something and took it home to fix.
LAPTOP OF DETRIMENT + 3
i got a little sick for a good bit of time. he has been nice, but i feel bad. i want to make up for it.
originally i upgraded to a decent 500 gb 2.5, did a clean install of vista.
my plan was to gift him a nice ssd for his trouble, blow him away, yada yada.
so here is where i am:
laptop has vista installed, and i can take it to his house tommorow and be done with it.
THE LAPTOP HAS TWO 2.5 DRIVE BAYS.
i have two ssds sitting here:
intel 320 series 120 GB from best buy(yeah, not cheap)
Intel 320 Series SSDSA2CW120G3B5 2.5" 120GB SATA II MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
and this
OCZ Agility 3 AGT3-25SAT3-120G 2.5" 120GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
I can also run to best buy tomorrow and pick either of these:
Seagate - Momentus 500GB Internal Serial ATA Hard Drive for Laptops
Seagate - Momentus XT 500GB Internal Serial ATA Solid State Hybrid Drive for Laptops - Silver/Black
we are talking a difference of a hundred bucks, which is not a lot towards marketing to get a little word of mouth, especially after flubbing the return date.
best move?
