I have purchased a Crucial M225 128GB SSD as a C: drive to run with Windows 7 HP 64bit, 8GB ram, Q6600 etc.

With regards to Photoshop and Bridge CS4, is it better to leave the PS scratch disk and Bridge cache on the SSD (C:\) or move them to a SATA drive? Files mainly used are RAW images from a Canon 5D for post processing so not huge, but there would be a several hundred per session.
 
Better on the drive with the highest sequential write speed.
If they are fairly large files your not going to have to worry about write amplification on the ssd

Thanks. The files should be 12 to 30 MB but there will be hundreds of them per client.
