Any of you guys using a SSD drive for FSX

I am considering an SSD myself...but I have a LOT of addons, and don't want to have multiple smaller drives. So, it looks like I am goung to have to spend some big bucks to get a high capacity SSD in the not too distant future...

You can store your user-flyable aircraft in a folder on a conventional drive (as long as you link to it in the FSX.cfg) while having everything else on the SSD.
User-flyables are generally loaded only once per flying session anyways (contrary to AI aircraft which got in and out of the Ram all the time).

Thank you for the info! I never knew that, and it puts the whole SSD thing into a much more affordable realm now...
 
Just FTR [and I'm not game on checking the costing yet] the OCZ Octane SATA III SSD is available from 128GB up to 1TB ......... :icon_eek:
I'm not ready to sell a Kidney at the moment.
