If I need one should I buy one now? I bought a cheap 120 gb one for a laptop last week hoping it would fix the problem on it...it didn't, but I've been thinking about getting one for my desktop. It's got a hybrid seagate 1tb with the small ssd built in, but after testing the ssd on the old laptop, I think I could use the extra speed, especially for doing this stuff.
It's weird, Windows installed in like 10 minutes on the old i5 laptop, but as soon as windows started up, everything went to hell. Probably time to just buy something new instead of chasing problems.
