So it seems to me that over the last 7 years of having 6.5 hours free to write code on your laptop, you could have written a better storage management software package!

Just ordered my birthday present from Herself - a 960GB SSD and associated bits'n'bobs.
That should make opening Visual Studio a bit quicker...
[edit]Please note: birthday not until end of month. Ordered today to get them here in time...[/edit]

It's not till the end of the month - which means if I order it now, she'll have time to get me to wrap them before my birthday!
And don't worry about the phone - I only moved into the smart phone era a few years ago, when I changed from a HP iPAQ hw6915[^] (with a MASSIVE 64MB of RAM) to a Moto G ... laugh.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Nice! I just got a 480 a few months ago. Everything loads much faster now!

Did you do a clean install, or use a SDD upgrade wizard like AOMEI Partition Assistant?

Clean install, first to 7, then let it upgrade to 10 before anything else was added. The only important thing I missed the first time was activating 7 before trying to upgrade.

Well, you're going to be so sorry if you don't get a Samsung with 3D Vertical Nand, because your other compadres in the pub are going to have them and be booting seconds faster than you ! [^].
And, can you live with the shame of being shunned by the techlite because you are 40 gigs short of a terabyte ?
cheers, Bill

No, I got the Sandisk Ultra II 960, it's half the price and very little slower.
I think I'll live with the 550/500 MB/sec instead of the 32 MB/Sec odd I get from my HDD at the moment...

At 228 quid a throw, I'm not sure that there will be that many compadres having them! There's another economic crisis on the way. Hadn't you heard?
I am not a number. I am a ... no, wait!

No - Sandisk.
Got a special offer on the 960 Ultra II which made it a lot cheaper than your companies equivalent, and much faster than my HDD.
No point in going for the fastest if the rest of the PC isn't up to the same spec, and mine isn't any where close to cutting edge!

Why does it not surprise me that someone who can't keep religious propagandizing out of their message signature can't keep their mind out of the gutter ?

Religious propagandizing and gutter thinking (and behavior) are, unfortunately, not incompatible.
Just look at all the scandals in recent years involving religious figures. 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

"not incompatible:" I think the dynamic is a bit more fundamental than that:
Quote: “The beginning, middle, and end of the birth, growth, and perfection of whatever we behold is from contraries, by contraries, and to contraries; and whatever contrariety is, there is action and reaction, there is motion, diversity, multitude, and order, there are degrees, succession and vicissitude.”
