Meridian Unplugged - Powered by MrTechGuy.co.uk Forums Discussion Off Topic Should I fit an SSD hard drive to my new laptop?

Fitted my PC with a 256G Crucial M4 and its a very good drive - running Win 7.

I need to update to the latest firmware still but it boots fast and unlike other HD's hasnt slowed down at all.

Opening Outlook with a lot emails used to take a few seconds or more - too long for me, now its instant as is opening most prgrammes.

However its a lot of cash for a miminal gain if you look at it from one angle, but its not a minimal gain overall.

Very happy with mine

Hello,

SSD is worth of money, in addition of faster boot, it will affect the overall performance of computer. But avoid Kingston drives. They have been plenty of corrupted disks. Intel and OCZ work fine.
