New SSD hard drives that you can shake

by stephanlange on January 16, 2009

Check out the video below. This guy is shaking his SSD with a force of up to 800Gs and is still playing video of it at the same time:

Today’s “normal” hard drives usually give up at about 100 G.

i can’t wait to get my hands on one of those and shake things up :-)

currently its impossible to install windows on ssd drives

@mahir – I don’t think that is correct as there are already Laptops on the market that have their OS installed on a SSD drive (e.g. Asus Eee)
There are also lots of tutorials you can follow to install Windows on an SSD drive:
