  • witing my new dm800se and had 1 before so fine flashing etc. But was wondering if a solid state HD would work as I hav 1 lying about. if not then il need to get 1 from the bay, but just wondering if that would work so i can be up and running right away rather than wait on new HD coming also.


    Thanks

  • No reason why it shouldn't work. I have a normal 500gb HDD in mine and it works fine, The DM800 shouldn't be able to distinguish between a normal HDD and a solid state one.


    Best way to find out is just install it and see what happens.

  • Two big advantages you have there. The size of the SSD compared with mechanical drives, and of course, data transfer speed. The DM is a small box, so I would think an SSD would be perfect. Lucky man to have a 500GB lying around spare!
