When I replaced a traditional hard disk in my 5 year old laptop with a
SSD I noticed a faster start up but for day to day use no overall
difference in speed.




Hmm! that hasn't been my experience. I've changed several laptops to
SSDs and *everything* is much snappier.

Agreed. I guess his day to day use is opening one word processor and
using it for hours.


Nope, just only rebooting ever few months and not closing apps.


A very odd way to use a computer.


The only sensible way to use a computer used most of most days.
