OCZ Synapse Drive also a normal SSD?

Will OCZ Synapse drives (specifically this one) work as normal SSDs?

It's 64gb. A good SSD for an OS + games/software should be (IMO) a 120gb+.

It's a cache drive, so i doubt it. I don't think it'd be great for long term storage.

Tech specs seem identical to OCZ Vertex drives, that's why I'm asking the question.

The whole idea behind SSD caching is when you have the OS on a regular hdd then you can use the SSD as a cache for that hdd and bring the performance of it up to a SSD.

So no. Just get a regular SSD.
