I do not see much HDD activity once the mission is loaded. But if that is true then the addition of SSD would have little impact. Confused... think I'll wait for the next patch.

I have used a method I found at this link in 1C forums and it reduced my hiccups to hardly any. This was most helpful for me. Thank you.

Yeah, I have both on the SSD but then again I only have CLoD and Arma2+expansions, plus one or two other games installed in Steam right now. If I start buying more games then I'll be looking to do the Steam Mover thing.

The great thing is how fast CLoD starts up and loads missions. Very cool.

So now I need a feckin SSD-disc too?!?
This is getting ridicolous.:evil:

I used a junction until recently, it doesn't make any noticeable difference for me in game, but loading times are reduced a little. The only games on my SSD now are ARMA2 and Crysis, both of which really do benefit unlike CoD IMO.

I installed Win 7 Ult fresh on a Vertex 3 SSD/Sata III connection (only getting about 375mb/s over the rated 500..probably cause of my controller on the mobo)...
but windows 7, Steam, and CLOD are all on the SSD.

No stutters. never seen a stutter.

now if we can get SLI working I can use the remaining 3 cores of my cards :)

what about when it comes to updates? does steam still update my game properly?

yes

Better than running on ssd is run from ram. Here is a post on the forums about such and links to the two utilities you need. No need to purchase an ssd as ram is faster.

To bad game developers do not program for Linux, as it is easy to run a Linux install from ram completely, running apps or the OS itself directly from ram has been around since the beginning, that's how it was done before hardrives. To bad developers and m$ does not learn from the best, oh wait, let me list all the programs and features m$ stole from Linux, no wait there is not enough room here.
