HOW did you get a RunCore?!?! Nobody else has one?!?!! Could I talk you into installing OS X on that puppy?


Tired of wondering if your Mini9 is doing ANYTHING? - Add a HDD Activity LED

I actually have two of them, I only wanted one but got charged for two and shipped two. My wife has a Dell Mini as well so I may put it in there or install OSX on the other. When I placed the order I had overnight shipping so it was shipped on Thursday and arrived on Friday.

I am a little confused on this subject. How in the hell could you have ordered AFTER everyone else and received it BEFORE everyone else??? Something smells a bit fishy around here. Sorry for the disbelief. I just find it hard to believe that you just ordered it and just got it when all of us have been waiting so long.

When did you place the order?

I ordered a MDD SSD drive months ago, and then that drive was discontinued so I was given the option to switch to the runcore drive, so i did. Douglas called me and said he received an early batch.

Here is my other one, not installed yet.

Well, I applaud you in being the first to get one. I hope the rest start rolling in.

Now on to other things. I am with UnaClocker. Could you install OS X on there and give us some results please?

LOL/ Thats funny. I deleted that section out of my post because after I finished I noticed you put up the pic showing the drive on your device manager. So I didn't feel that necessary to leave. But I guess you saw it before I deleted it. LOL/ Thanks anyway for posting that image. Again, sorry for the disbelief at the beginning. I guess we are ALL a little antsy to get our drives too.

Are those speeds consistent with JKKMobile's speedtests on the drive?
