no... your DIMMs wont fall off... you're thinking of when you play with YOURSELF! rofl!

actually its a really effective setting to get your read times down... by lowering the tRRD, you'll be able to change the amount of time between reads, which is rather useful for SuperPi...

btw NosBoost, those HDDs are pretty sick fast... i'm getting around 90MB/s+ reads AND writes with my 500s, and apparently the 320s are a bit faster overall
