In general my experience has been that SSD drives give you a significant performance boost. I replaced the rotational drive in my now 7 year old Macbook Pro a couple of years ago and a lot of my thumb twiddling time went away. Not quite an apples to apples (pun intended) comparison but I think it's money well spent.

I think I'm going to buy a laptop this week for some Black Friday deal (hopefully) to get the best savings. I bought a Surface Pro 3 from a friend last year but I'm used to a Dell Latitude laptop that fits in my docking stations so I'm not taking to the Surface Pro 3 I guess for that reason. Plus I need to wipe his image (it was a buyout from his company) and hence "if I have to spend for that, why not just spend a little more and get a new Dell Latitude." My question here: I LOVE LOVE LOVE the SSD drives, but of course the 7200 rpm drives are cheaper. Would YOU spend the extra $$$ for the SSD drive (despite it also being smaller in size than the RPM drive)? _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/mwhpr10mb1774a1062e7818a113768076d2...@mwhpr10mb1774.namprd10.prod.outlook.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
