JR hit the nail on the head. Everything is run through the OS and that is often what bogs things down. You don't have to worry about bottlenecks with software or video because, when in use, that info is put into memory. When it comes to gaming, the graphics card and front end cache speed are where the bottlenecks usually occur.

Similar. Difference is that these SSD drives should be connected through the SATA port to provide higher data transfer speeds.
