A quote from the article:
When you hang out with the same group of people frequently enough, it is easy to integrate inside jokes into your every day life. This is because the deep mutual understanding developed between each other will automatically create an overly comfortable zone in discussion, and this works out pretty well -- as long as you are with the same people all the time. Recently, I was hanging out with a different group of friends. When one of them gave me their cell phone number, I said, without thinking, that I would "call [her] maybe". Now, with my usual group of friends, this would have just been a regular remark, since we say it so often with no real implications. However, with this group of friends, everyone else just looked at me weirdly -- to which I quickly followed up with a "just kidding". As you can see, sometimes, we take things so for granted, it is easy to forget about that it is even there at all. Ever since 2011, I have equipped every computer I own with one or more SSDs. In fact, since then, I have moved to forgo traditional HDDs altogether, and just slapped in a bunch of SSDs for all my storage needs. It was not before long that I forgot how a hard drive performed, until the day I started using my office computer conveniently equipped with only hard drives, and I started to scratch my head wondering why the computer took so long to boot, and how long it took to extract certain ZIP archives. It was then I remembered that solid state drives were a luxury until quite recently. With the release of OCZ's ARC 100, SanDisk's Ultra II, and Crucial's MX100 we are reviewing today, has it finally dawned upon us the day that we can finally equip every mainstream computer with a good performing SSD? We fired one up to find out.
