I was using my SSD based computer last night for a number of routine tasks and was overtly enjoying how quickly it responded to everything I asked of it. For all practical purposes, the result of a mouse click is instantaneous. Needing to reboot is only a trivial and momentary inconvenience. There is just something very satisfying about any complex machine that runs this incredibly well.
Then, my wife asked me for some help with an App on her HDD (Ugh!) based machine (more or less similar in all other respects). The difference between the two machines was striking. Many times I have offered to install an SSD in her machine but she does not now want to deal with a clean install.
Anyway, I periodically see posts with users asking if they should upgrade to an SSD. Unequivocally yes! It is well worth the minimal effort and expense. IMO, no other upgrade or even combination of upgrades will give such a noticeably significant improvement in apparent speed.
