      Why waste SSD on Win10? And SQL2016 can be installed on a tiny Linux too...

        I've got my first M.2 drive setup sitting on the kitchen table right now. Can't power it up yet because the RAM came in bad. I should have it up and running later this week. I got a Samsung 960 EVO Series 500GB NVMe M.2 Internal SSD MZ-V6E500BW[^] from Micro Center. NVMe is supposed to be about 5x faster than SATA 6Gb 'cause she's running on the PCIe bus. In theory anyway... I haven't been able to try it yet but I should be installing the O/S this week and giving it a little benchmarking.

          Hey Dave ! Sorry to hear the RAM came in bad ! Feel for you :) ! If you get results let us know ! I was wondering how long a typical setup took to boot with Win Updates, Office installed, VS 2015 w/ Sql Express or a Sql Express or some type of S.Express installation .. Thanks ! Jon

            Have it with Win10... It's ridiculously fast. I don't do any development on my home machine, though, these days, so no idea how fast VS2015 is with it. But considering how fast it brings up games... Even 60-gig MMOs... It's FAST.

            Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?
