    Hey guys I am planning my first build and I picked up a 40 gb Intel X25-V with the plan of running my operating system on it and I have a few questions.

    1/ Do you think its big enough?
    2/ Also any recommendations on what should go on the ssd and what way to set it up?

    40 GB will be grand so for Windows 7 and a few of your most used programs.
