Hi everyone
I'm currently in university using a year old laptop to do all my work. I'm running Vista 64-bit at the moment and getting close to the point of transfer to Windows 7. However, I started thinking about it and I starting wondering if I could simply put Windows 7 on an external SSD, connect it with an eSATA cable for fast transfer speeds and dual boot with the existing Vista on the HD. From what I've seen I can get up to 200 Mb/s transfer to an external SSD, but I'm not so sure it would boot faster than my Vista right now, which is admittedly slow. Thanks in advance for the help
