   Re: Convert HDD to SSD

   From: Altie@BHam.com   
      
   I wanted to come back and update everyone on what options I chose. To help   
   save Mother Earth and to create no more waste and to purchase no more   
   clutter from capitalists to foul up our air and water, my brother-in-law   
   gave me some of his old SSD's he was no longer using.   
      
   That was a big plus because no more animals had to die from pollution that   
   it takes to create computer equipment.   
      
   To not be a contributor to the destruction of our precious planet, I have   
   found a way to re-purpose the old HDD's I had.  I am using one of them as   
   a doorstop for a hallway door in my home that always closes about halfway   
   without something to stop it.   
      
   For another one, I took a ball-peen hammer and beat on it just a little   
   bit and created an indentation in the case.  Then, being the resourceful   
   person I am, I took an antique chair that was never quite level and placed   
   one if its legs into that indentation and it perfectly leveled the chair.   
      
   Now I am happy, my old computer runs faster, and Gaia knows that I am   
   offsetting the harm that is caused by the rich and famous celebrities who   
   fly around in jets all day, every day, 365 days a year.
