I've got a 60Gb OCZ Vertex 2 which I'm no longer using and so I was considering throwing it into a laptop and putting XP on it.
I appreciate that XP doesn't support TRIM but that wasn't an issue when I was using that SSD in a Mac Pro as I believe the Vertex 2 has its own garbage collection. In fact, when I force enabled TRIM, the performance suffered.
Is this going to work OK? Is there anything I need to do apart from re-partition the drive to remove OS X and install XP?
