Not that i'm too fussed about it, I'm quite happy with that time for my budget build

25.911 seconds on a 2/3 full velociraptor running a year old installation of Vista 64. Doesn't seem too bad!

Unless I've gone mad, I can't get this thing to record at all.

Restarted with it three times, twice with the program when it asks you and once I said "no" and did a manual restart.

The timer, it does nothing

With Vista it wouldn't run until I 'ran it as administator'.

Rig as per sig, running Win7 RC that was installed about 6 weeks ago. My drive's showing as just under 20GB used, I've never ran GC and I've yet to upgrade the drives firmware so TRIM isn't running atm.

Win Vista
3x 640GB WD Blue, Raid0. I always use sleep anyway.

I'm looking forward to SSD's being affordable HDD replacements in say 10 years time.

They have far too much of a price premium for their developing tech at the moment. But it'll hit a wall eventually and then they'll be busy cutting each others throats to undercut each others prices which is all good news.
