Hi guys,

I going to update the firmware to 000F tomorrow as pc is not with me.

Using the booting ISO method as many suggest.
I was creating ISO USB using the method stated in the crucial.com webbie.

Using the pendrivelinux.com/universal-usbinstaller-easy-as-1-2-3,

At the Step 1 drop down box, scroll to the bottom and select
the last option: Try Unlisted Linux ISO .

But I got linux ISO ( new syslinux) and ISO (old syslinus). Which one do i use?

eh. now my C drive is using 100gb, but that's cause of all my jabalang games inside taking up 60+gb. so if i put games on my hdd think 60 gb should be enough for windows + essential programs?

1 more thing, seems like all the other promo treads feature only 128 and above ssd.
if want to buy 60gb one is the price is similar locally vs ship in from overseas?
