    Solid State Drives & Photoshop

    Most likely, this has been covered in earlier posts. However, I am lazy by nature and thought that I would throw this out again. I have an older computer that is going along quite well but have realised that I can expand the RAM from 4GB to 8GB at the huge cost of $32 - courtesy of a major online retailer. Those sticks are on their way.

    My internet wanderings inevitably lead me to Solid State Drives. For a couple of hundred bucks, I can get a drive with no moving parts. By loading my operating system and programs to that drive I should speed my computer. The current set-up is fine for web-browsing, office stuff, etc. It does slow down when I am doing more complicated things in PS CC.

    System details are:

    Processor: Intel Core i3 550 @ 3.20 gHz
    Motherboard: supports SATA300
    Graphics: AMD Radeon HD 5450 1Gb physical memory

    Any thoughts?
