hello all i have a (Kingston SSDNow V Series SNV425-S2/64GB) that i want to use for a boot drive just to run windows 7 pro (this is a fresh install, just built my system). i help on what i need to do in the bios, to make this function correctly? i read something with setting up AHCI & TRIM. i need to educated on this matter before i go any further.

Also, how is that drive in relation to speed & performance?

Thanks every one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just enable AHCI in the BIOS, then proceed with installing Windows 7.

After that, TRIM will be working automatically.

As for the drive itself, in terms of speed/performance for a boot drive (compared to a standard hard disk), I think you will be pleased.
