On another post about the cheapest ssd to use they talked about using a fast CF card with a CF to SATA adapter. It's got me thinking about using this solution for the Revo in the bedroom (using the external esata port). This would allow me to keep the original hard drive in there and put xbmc on the flash card. Then I could use the ssd in my home built htpc in the living room. I love tinkering with the computers. My wife says I do more tweaking than I do using the computers I have. XBMC has changed my free time though ever since the original xbox and I don't even play video games. Anyways I am getting a little off track from my original post so I will stop now. Jim

It is worth the upgrade if you got the extra cash. I bought a 32GB for $40 Black Friday and its super snappy and loads all my thumbnails and sections immediately.

I bought a used Revo 3610 from someone that had an 80 gig SSD already in it. I'm not impressed by the speed and am curious if it was installed correctly. I've read somewhere that you might need to make sure the correct firmware installed. Has anyone had any comparison or experience with how to install it correctly?
