KitGuru Says: Prices of SSD's have dropped significantly so far this year. These lower prices are helping pave the way for more companies to join the market , which could lead to better competition and even lower prices. How many of you guys still need to get an SSD? It's definitely worth investing in one as it's probably the best upgrade you can make for overall performance.
