    Hi.
    I'm about to change the 8 GB SSD disk of my aao but i don't know if i should chose the CF card or the 1,8" zif.
    I just want to know the speed diference between this two as i don't need the extra space from the toshiba. It will be used with win XP.

    CF VERBATIM 8GB 300X pro series
    and
    toshiba MK3008GAL

    Cheers

    Xuixo: Did you install the MK3008GAL in your AA1? I have the same drive and am wondering if it will work in the AA1. There seems to be some question about whether the MK3008GAL has the same ZIF connector as the AA1 SSD.
    I wanted to install that 1.8 HD and install Windows XP...thinking that the original SSD would be too slow. But now I have installed an NLite'd version of XP and it runs just fine...even with the stock 512 RAM.
