Ditto. Why not have the best of both worlds. A 160Gb SSD would be perfect for an OS drive and then have a couple of terrabytes worth of HDDs for file storage (either in the pc or as NAS).

Re: Laptops: Definately a massive improvement over HDDs for all the reasons mentionned already. The power consumption will also improve battery life on laptops a bit although the improvements in display technology will see even better gains in this area soon.
