Absolutely! Solid State drives are the best upgrade you can give your PC. The hard drive in your computer is a spinning disk that stores all your data and programs. It takes time to spin up and read this data. When you open a program the drive has to spin up and find the program. The program is then copied into RAM until you close the program because RAM (like a Solid State) is much faster than a hard drive, If it were not for RAM your programs would run off the hard drive the whole time and be really slow. This is why when you first open a program it takes a few second but when it is open the speed it good. A solid state drive stores data on a flash memory chip instead of a spinning disk. This makes the drive much faster and more reliable. It will make your PC boot up faster and all your programs will open up almost instantly!
