thank you Carlo

and a BIG Thank You to AJ, my #1 support and go-to guy here in the USA

i'm still waiting to hear back from Italy on 2 emails i sent them 2 months ago

oh, now they are vacation for the entire month of August

Hi Lee,

like Carlo wrote, this adaptor is exactly what you need.

As far as I know a "cable-only-solution" does not exist.

And my Audys-SSD still works fine ( and silent )

Thanks Snoopy

That is awesome news,
Keep on rockin with your SSD

i ordered my Sandisk 120gb SSD
i have my adapter (thanks AJ)

i am gonna do it (this weekend)
bye bye to all that spinning (will be my backup)

HELLO SSD !!!

I hope our relationship is Solid... lol

Hi all,

Just a warning to all going for the SSD option - maybe this problem is unique to my installation only:

When booting, the Audya does not see the SSD 1st time everytime. Most of the time, I have to switch off & on 3 to 5 times before the Audya accepts the SSD & then only starts to boot.

Also, although the SSD is 120GB, the Audya will ony see & utilize 80GB.

The above pose no real problem for me & I've learned to live with it. I am still extremely happy with mine.

All the best my friends,

Henni

Snoopy, AJ

you guys ever experience this intermittent SSD behavior?

i'm just about to ahead with this SSD swap, maybe tonight

maybe it's an AJAMSONIC thingy, a bug somewhere?
Snoopy you have ajamsonic?

Henni,

maybe your SSD connections are loose?

i know you have to put that adapter in between

The connector is the main issue here for the most part as nothing physically holds it in place secured to the SSD apart from friction between both connectors. We use a glue gun here to secure the connection between the adaptor and the SSD so that it stays in place even during extreme motion.

Try doing this and get back to me.

Thanks,

AJ

AJ can you explain a bit more the "glue" process?
you melt glue on it? how? what kind of gun/product?

Lee,

You use a Glue gun to melt a "plastic looking and feeling" glue stick sold with it (at Radio Shack e.g) which melts like a candle onto both surfaces. As it solidifies (in under a minute), it bonds with both and 'glues/holds' them together.

She explains here how to use one of these:- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WGeujbfgEI8

Hope that helps.

Thanks,
