I use a raptor 10k for my os drive and there is a noticable difference, especially when you do the windows performance test with the ssd, plus i have tested the ssd sata connection speed for data transfer on a friends machine and the transfer rates are off the charts, compaired to the platter drive.

One of the big performance gains is when you are doing video or audio editing, running a server or gaming. But for the average user its not a viable upgrade.

Supposedly the smaller size 10K RPM drives are very fast.
