you do not need to choose either to have the BR drive or the new SSD

Im sure if you check properly you will see that you dont have to touch your BR drive at all and you can just ADD in the new SSD

It is not either one or the other in fact without a BR drive (we assume that this is the only optical drive in your pc bcos dont forget a BR drive is also the DVD drive)
- with an optical drive how are you going to install hardware device drivers when you need to???  you are so techie that you can convert the files into a USB drive and use that?

Just add the SSD and read the F-ing manual becos if you want speed you will have to either install a new OS ON THE new SSD or do a clone migration of your current HDD with all the programs in it to the new SSD

you mean the thingy that looks like this???



Nope NEVER!  I thohght that it was fantasy

Ah, thanks for this suggestion! 1.5GB/s should more than suffice for the HDD right? Or does it bottleneck the HDD to a certain extent? Not like I have much of a choice here, but I'm curious to find out.
