Post by: hatingfrancisco on May 17, 2013, 09:26:07 AM: SSD is the only way to go... faster boot, quieter, longer hard drive life... spend the extra money and go that route...

I am leaning towards the SSD.

What's more important to me, the person that will have to pay for it if it breaks (or has to buy the extra coverage) is that it's durable. Thus the SSD is the way I am leaning.

I have no experience with internal SSD's and haven't bothered to look up what people think, so that's one of the reason why I am asking you youngsters.
