Do you ave the ability to connect to a CD or DVD?

What is the wattage on the power supply?

Boot time is about a minute but I have not used a stopwatch to time it. I have a couple of other SSD's so I pretty use to there speed now, oh soooo much better then the older drives.

Yes I have opted to get a optical drive for this and it will share time with the laptop when I get a new one. The one I picked out is this one:

It reads and writes up to Blu-ray and has Mdisk support. Yea it cost a bit more but it also can convert to look like a Harddisk or memory stick and plug in to your Smart TV's USB port and play data files, that is a cool feature!

Small and sleek.
It is also $87 so you can not add cheap to its plus side.

Ed, how is your new PC treating you? I have a solid state drive available and I'm thinking of putting it to work somewhere. This might be a good use.

It is still working flawlessly. I have added another memory chip so it is now 16GB. I'm really happy with it!

Interesting that it takes the TV longer to boot then it takes the PC. If I turn them on at the same time the start screen is waiting for the TV screen to come on.

Now I'm thinking of getting another one and retiring one of my old systems. They sure save the space and that is at premium for me.

Fantastic! I was concerned about heat, especially with adding another hard drive.
