Would i actually see a visible difference in Windows & Applications?

What's everyone's thoughts?

Yup its a well worthwhile investment - I have been using Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB drives for ages now and made the move last week.

My windows boost up in 20 seconds and is SNAPPY as hell.

I noticed you're from Reigate! Me too

It almost seems like SSDs are a bit of a backwards step in terms of flexibility and simplicity..

Back to the days of micro managing your files to avoid maxing out?

Hmm..

Mechanical hard drives were small once too.

Oh true, but they're not now. Just wondering whether i want to go back to faffing and worrying over file sizes. Especially as someone pointed out that games are like 10Gb these days.
