I'm new here and those bastards did the same thing to me! I've got it really bad, I now have 2 cases, 2 SSD's, and I'm now planning on building 2 systems, one for my home theater setup in my living room and one to be portable and take in my RV or on my dad's sailboat.

JAJA.... so what did you buy? Cool

Yeah I think I'll go hibernation off and see if I can hit the 20s mark rather than constantly write junk to the SSD.

AsRock Instant Boot is different than straight hibernation in one important aspect. It reboot HTPC before it put it in hibernation. It'll help keep HTPC running stable. I have a slow AsRock E350M1. I have it for more than a year now, and it is very stable with AsRock Instant Boot option....
