Do I get faster performance with a solid state data drive or a standard hard drive?
I am using a MacBook Pro with an i7 processor and 6 gb of RAM. Due to a recent mishap I was forced to replace the hard drive. I put in a 512 gb SSD from Crucial. It has definitely increased performance of CS5 in terms of speed and also the initial boot time is amazing....around 10 to 15 seconds to completely boot up. The SSD opens programs much faster too. I have not noted any extension in battery performance but have not measured it specifically. Very pleased so far with the increased performance.
