I think for most people and especially increasingly over time the choice is going to just be a checkbox when they buy a new computer. Eventually it'll be a recommended upgrade, then it'll be the default.
I would avoid looking at the component level and look beyond SSD at the entire technical purchasing process - buying an Android phone or tablet's a retarded journey through Google and Amazon reviews, if that's what buying a PC or laptop is like for "normal people" then target the entire process of buying a new [tech/gadget/etc] instead.
- fuzionmonkey 15y agoSomeone who is likely to do their own SSD upgrade is probably a power user who already understands which SSD they want. They might read Anandtech SSD articles and Newegg reviews, and probably are well versed in the advantages of the various SDD controllers and SLC vs MLC, etc. Most people would probably just check the SSD checkbox.
- benologist 15y agoYeah that's another really great reason to aim for a wider segment.
