Any SSD setup and installation guides?

I've noticed that there aren't any guides on this topic. Now, since I've never owned an SSD, I'm not sure how to go about doing this, although I did find a video about it. I just want to make sure that everyone approves this method;

I can only assume that a Corsair 60GB Force GT falls under your "current SSD", so I should be safe, right? >.<

How would I then go about disabling hibernation (what's wrong if computer hibernates?) and shrink pagefile size?

OK...

Dammit, now I need to do some research since I don't exactly know what virtual memory does >.>

Edit: *facepalm* I am an idiot, I knew what it was >.>

Quite a sticky situation here... I'll be geetting 8GB RAM, and one would assume that should be enough without resorting to writing to harddrive. But should I stay on the safe side?

I guess it comes down to how much one multi-tasks =/

Right, I'm becoming a bit overwhelmed by the response. What I'm more worried about is the whole write limit on SSDs, is my SSD a ticking time bomb? Suppose I installed a program on to my HDD and made a shortcut to my desktop, will my SSD be affected in that it'll lose a write process?

EDIT: Nevermind, found out how to disable system restore;

But the above question still stands.
