If you go Patriot, just make sure you get the latest firmware on there. I have the Pyro and this beast is just crazy fast. It would randomly reboot though, until I fixed the firmware.
Enjoy, I was skeptical on the Patriot at first, but now I don't mind recommending them. I won't do that for OCZ though. My buddy just had his last failure on an OCZ. He's going back to spinners.

Got the SSD and my god is it tiny! I have no clue how to mount this in my case.. Do you just put 2.5" HD's in a normal HD slot?

Try Velcro! It's an SSD so mounting anywhere inside your case shouldn't be an issue. Let us know about any performance improvements you notice with your new drive.

So since SSDs have to be double sided taped or velcro'd down do you think they will start making cases with SSD's in mind?

So far Seems pretty quick! installation of programs are SUPER quick! So how do I check firmware or update it if need be?

Thanks! getting xbmc all set up right now seems like it moves pretty quick! no more lagging upon boot up either.

Glad you like it. Mine has been trouble free since the firmware update. Its really made a difference on all my clients. I'm using it as the cache drive for my clients, as well as the MySql data drive on my server.
