Yeah. SSDs came a long way.
They still cost an arm and a leg, but they are damn faaaast.
I got two Crucial M4 SSD's. A 128GB for the OS and a 256GB for the games and some heavy apps. I hooked them both on intel 6GB/s SATA3 controler.
I'm sure the SSDs created the biggest performance boost in my upgrade.
