I am in a quandry here.

Was looking at the SSD available and it will give me problems in storage space.

Currently using a 600gb hard drive and i usually save all my files on it for easy access. Though if i upgrade to SSD, it will severely limit my ability to store and move my files, cause I will be dependable on an external drive.

Does anyone recommend buying the seagate hybrid drive? Those have the storage available and some flash memory to help you boot things.

advice would be go for SSD, and get a External HDD(faster enough for u to transfer here and there thorugh out the HDD, as HDD(vry slow transfer, even u put it inside sata port)

Which SSD is below 800 or something close with a space of 200++ GB.....?

Processor spanking M17x means??
Since core 2quad q9000 the processor is overkill for our daily life usage. Now the concern is SSD and graphic card. RAM doesn't effect much

yea but ssd doesnt mean anyting u only get fast bootup times and data transfer not noticable in gaming...not worth for the price......graphic card do matter though

i want to be in m14x user list

Same to processor as well. U doesn't gain performance either quad or dual.

You do get way faster loading speeds, which will also affect your gaming experience
Imho its worth it if you can afford it. For gaming, GPU is the most important, then followed by the HDD/SSD speed and CPU

its all depends on what u use the comp for....if for converting videos u need a overkill cpu
or gaming, GPU is the most important, then followed by the HDD/SSD speed and CPU

then u are wrong, converting video quad core are still overkill where it wont utilize.... my dual core will be faster than urs ^^(both using HDD), if i3+SSD, still faster than ur i7+HDD in converting video

what u see online are DIGITS/NUMBERS, in real life is nothing where we cant feel or see the different. Those are just their marketing strategy.
