You could do that... though I would personally spend a bit more for a Samsung 850, but that's just me (I already got three of those running in pc's at home) With some clever management and tricks, a 128GB SSD could do fine, but you'd have to install all games/sims on a different (slower) traditional disk... You could keep the Win7 disk as a backup, though only if you install Windows 10 from scratch - If you decide to do the Upgrade route, then for sure, you will loose Windows 7. (Unless you first clone/copy the Win7 disk to the new SSD - Samsung has a fine piece of software for that - and then upgrade the new disk to Windows 10.) (Or, Upgrade to Windows 10 first, then clone the disk to the new SSD, then run the Win10 uninstall process on the old disk.... never mind... that'd be kinda silly...) (A downside of keeping Windows 7 on that disk, is that probably at the first slightest bump or 'issue' you come across using Windows 10, instead of looking for an - often simple - answer/solution to it, you think 'Oh well' and race the old disk back in... )

While Windows 10 may seem to be a sore subject, I see no real and true reason for that. It works fine! For me, and for others. Some may have issues, but whether those are they really Windows 10 issues? I doubt it. For sure, there's a chance your Game Controller ID's may/will change sequence-wise, and you may have to either unplug/replug into different usb ports, or change the game settings once. If you are using software that has issues with Windows 10 (like Saitek) then you may want to hold of, or take a different road.

Rgr... Whenever Ovy's around when I'm around, we'll wing up, fighters, bombers, bait... whatever... Add some Painless to the mix, and there you are, a three ship Bi(e)g(o) Wing! -
Just finished a good 'scrap' on our server, all on me own... Took off from Gravesend, in my trusty old beaten up Hurricane. Steered south, and climbed, climbed, climbed. Up to some 27600 ft. So, near English point, radar reported a raid of Ju87 's was heading for like Canterbury. I steer towards them... loosing altitude, and going 'fast' ... lol Just close to Canterbury I caught up with them, to find they were covered by 110's. As the 87's were diving already, I decided to kill some 110's. So I did! Could get like one B&Z attack in, but after that, energy advantage had kinda gone. Hurricane for teh win! In the end, I think I got four of them venting, I took some hits from their rear gunners.... So, ran out of ammo, broke off, luckily, they all appeared to have an acute case of 'Heimweh', and they all kept running east. I landed at Gravesend... The score list showed I got 2.00 kills. Like, I always do prefer DD_Gits around me, but this was a good one for a lone_wolf scrap!

There gunnery targets are cool. If you shoot them up, the do get 'destroyed', their color changes from white to greyish: Now I did change the weather, I thought I took out all of the wind... yet the sock at Gravesend is pointing East, and when taxi-ing Southwards, I had to keep on kicking the rudder left to keep the a/c heading where I wanted it to!

Sorry 'bout that Todd! The session today was from 14:00 - 16:00 GMT. Preparations are being made to announce the next session in the banner on the forums... -
At the same location as the bombing target, I have now setup six targets for gunnery practice: The arrow is pointing to the East, so you better come in from the West, diving down heading East. (And go "TakkeTakkeTakkeTakkeTakkeTakkeTakke") Also, changed settings to Light Clouds. Set start time to 9 AM, so it will run untill 6 PM ... for some extra atmosphere ... Note: Changes will appear next mission rotation ...

Them industrial buildings are basically butt ugly, yet they do make a nice object in a cool picture with all that blue stuff around them ...

Yes, it's only one example, but why doesn't somebody just hang up? Arguing? Yes, if you define an argument as two people exchanging virtually nothing else than sentences with the word F**K in each and every one of 'm, or even multiple times using that, repeating eachother... yes, then this an argument. But, where's the funny part of it? I do not get that.

Well, you are missing out on 1'48 of two guys basically exchanging rude words .. can't make anything else of it.
