I have just ordered one of these AV-GP drives as I was able to find one fairly cheap and needed a smaller drive to run my operating system off. Initially, I was sucked in by the low temperature and quicker read speeds, however have been put of a little by threads such as these on the net. Could anyone confirm whether or not they have used one of these drives as a boot drive within a computer? If so, have you noticed any behavioural characteristics different to, say, any other HDD? If the drive is unsuitable, i'd rather not bother removing it from the packaging and sort out a return a.s.a.p.
