Plextor M3 Series PX-128M3 Adventures

I grabbed a Plextor M3 for $99 after rebate. I don't have machine I want to put this in but couldn't pass it up. I keep looking for the right price on a new motherboard and cpu but nothing yet.

Flashing the 1.5 firmware to the Plextor was easy. The download is a bootable ISO which must be burned to a CD. I unhooked the SATA cable from one drive and hooked it (and power) to the SSD. With bios set to AHCI the drive was not recognized but changing to IDE worked. Now to wait for a system deal ....

Found here and will be back when I set up the Plextor M3.

It's a winner.
