[QUOTE="joec1101, post: 1108816, member: 40094"] I've been running a Torqx M28 256GB SSD in my Core i7 MBP with 4GB RAM for a few months now and couldn't be happier. It's VERY fast compared to a standard platter drive (even a 7200 drive). OSX boots in about 15 seconds from power up to desktop. Windows7 (using BootCamp) boots in about 20 seconds from power up to desktop. All apps open almost instantly on both the OSX side as well as the Win7 side. For me, the 256GB is plenty large enough - even with full install of all my apps as well as all my data files, music, etc. on both OSX and Win7, I still have 51% unused on the Win7 side and 69% unused on the OSX side. I haven't had any negative issues at all. My recommendation is to go for it if you have the money. An SSD and at least 4GB of RAM makes for a really fast machine! [/QUOTE]
