hey guys i just got my vertex 3 the other day and i set it all up with win7 yesterday and followed a lot of the stuff on these two websites:
http://www.ocztechnologyforum.com/f...es-with-a-brand-new-SandForce-based-ssd-drive
http://thessdreview.com/ssd-guides/optimization-guides/the-ssd-optimization-guide-2/
but long story short, im having some major problems with windows update (and i really dont want any help on that issue so dont even try, thanks anyway) and im just sick of it basically and i just wanna quickly reinstall win7. anyways, with this sdd ive been reading that u can just stick the disc in as if you were doing a fresh copy of win7, delete the ssd partition, create a new one, quick format, install and "TRIM" will take care of any left over files and what not from the previous installation. is this correct? im like a master of reformatting hdd and all that stuff but when it comes to ssd ive read theyre pretty easy to wreck so i just wanna make sure what im doing is correct/safe before i do it.
cheers
