Solid State is up to 8 times faster, uses less power. Good upgrade for 50 bucks. Personally, I am more concerned about the lower number of total read/writes before the drive craters. Although with a 2-3 year lifetime on a laptop like this you probably wont be using it long enough to have to deal with that.
