For #3 I answered "b" because the HDD has become a major bottleneck for system performance in recent years. You could still find improved speed with RAID options, but an SSD helps in almost every case. In my case, I use one as the cache for a ZFS pool.

Not entirely true, but I normally buy a refurbed, branded system and then replace components if I feel the need.

2) How often do you replace or upgrade your PC?
e) 3 years or longer
Not a gamer so the performance of any computer in the past few years is acceptable for me.

3) How important do you feel an SSD is to system performance?
b) Pretty important
One of the best upgrades to make since the hard disk is often the bottleneck in system performance on today's computers.

4) [Canadian residents] What is 120 plus 45 divided by 4 minus 11?
Not Canadian (but my answer would be):
120 + (45 / 4) - 11 = 120.25

1) Do you prefer to build your own PC’s or buy a branded system?

a) Build my own for sure. It's a good fun exercise, and lets me put in what I want.


2) How often do you replace or upgrade your PC?

a) Current trend has been 4+ years. But, that includes new graphics card upgrades sooner(maybe every 2 years when the tech makes huge jumps)

3) How important do you feel an SSD is to system performance?

a) Extremely important. I recently swapped out a standard drive for an SSD in a secondary machine, and Win7 boots in 7 seconds.
