I have a 2009 lap top:
http://www.trustedreviews.com/dell-studi...top-review
To be precise, and it's one with all the whistles and bells, would have been over a grand when new I got it for £120 barely used off ebay and it's still in perfect condiiton.
Now being reluctant to sell it, I'm toying with the idea of upgrading the HDD to a SSD, but this cost £110, nearly has much as the Lap top cost.
I know the benefits of SSD at loading things quicker, but I'm from an age where we use to sit and look at the blue load bar going across the screen and taking 15 mins to do it to load one web page, so waiting a minute extra is probbaly not worth the upgrade, but what I was wondering, can you run more powerful software on an SSD drive that couldn't be or is very sluggish in a HDD with them being quicker?
Is an SSD purely for the speed, temp and so on.
