Is Wiper safe to use with an AMD chipset/controller?

Not sure Dagwood - most of us here seem to be on Intel based controllers. The OCZ forums have a Wiper thread - you might find more info there.

That's what I'd noticed and prompted my question
I'll have a look on the OCZ forum and see if I can dig anything up.
Thanks for the reply

Nothing
I'd recommend removing/disabling any other HDs during the install, but that's not specific to the SSD - just that Windows can sometimes get confused with drive lettering and boot loaders etc with multiple HDs.

Got mine direct & have just noticed the price on the 128 has increased by about £32

I wouldn't worry about the prices. They will drop by quite a bit by Christmas / early next year.
Are these still generally considered the best SSDs available outside of the Intel range? I'm looking to do my first new build in years in the next few weeks and it feels like a waste if I don't get an SSD to compliment it, but there seems to be so many scare stories floating about at the moment, it's quite off-putting.

these are nowhere near the best SSD's they just provide you with a very good Price/Performance ratio compared to other drives. The best is still intel, closely followed by indilinx (i think that's how you spell it) drives (OCZ vertez, Falcon, Crucial) although crucial seems to be the slowest out of the bunch.

There is nothing between any of the barefoot drives, you couldn't tell tell the difference between any of them even the Turbo clocked ones. Far wiser to base the decision on support, warranty and price.

Argh done a fresh reinstall and the problem seems to be coming back of firefox crashing and WoW is crashing. And I keep getting a memory management Blue screen (This could be my ram will run memtest tomorrow, hope it's not as it's OCZ Amd special stuff which is not available here anymore to get replacement).
