Toyed with the idea of replacing the Macbook Pro's DVD drive with an SSD to run Mac OS off it ... how much are SSDs these days, is 120GB the most price-optimum size?

Oh. My. God. James absolutely obliterated the island tonight. The last time there was so much destruction, Obi Wan Kenobi had to take a seat on the Falcon after the Death Star said "hi and bye" to Leia's homeworld.
I got pics and video. But I will upload them in the morning. I need to smoke this nice phat joint and just close my eyes and replay the amazingness in my head.

i paid £150 for mine, you can pick them up pretty cheaply but as i learned the hard way its vital you do research on the controller in the drive also you need to make sure you're motherboard has an ACHI option but be prepared to fork out quite a bit for ones with the best controllers, if i had put the one i got yesterday and installed it in a windows laptop i would of been screwed
this is over a week of nothing but problem after problem with my solid 3 and as usual i,m going from pillar to post with ocz trying to sort it out... the new firmware update was supposed to fix all problems but its far far far worse than it was before lol
i,m currently back on a mechanical drive and the ssd is sitting idle and also empty and i keep getting messages saying a drive has connected when the truth it has alwasy been connected... the sandforce controller is fucked up man
this is what i like about ocz!!! when things start getting bad they just move onto another company to design their controllers for them, its a disgrace... for a company like that i would expect at least a high level of testing before they went and put it all out to the public, i,ll never buy ocz stuff again... man all you have to do is look @ the forums for the drives on the ocz site just to see how many people are having problems... i honestly don't think i,ve seen on positive thread in there yet
Well this is my work PC...NOT for gaming...I have my laptop for that
So, work PC:
Windows XP 64 bit
Intel i7-2600K 3.4 GHZ
Custom clocked 8GB Ram
Seagate Baracuda 1TB 7200 rpm 3gb/s
ocz vertex 2 3.5 --- 120gb
NVIDIA GeForce GT 430
As for your comments about OCZ eah...maybe you are right but my company deals a lot with custom built high performance machine...(I have complete and utter beasts that I use for trading) we get to send shit back and get it replace by nxt day mail...for free...but I can honestly say I haven't had any issues so far.
