From the comparison, we can see that the SSD has an average read speed of 172.1MB/sec while the SATA can only write at 59MB/sec which is about a third of the speed of the SSD.
Battery life on my notebook has increased by about 20% to make it to 6 hours usage time from 5. On the weight, the SSD is lighter by a few grams.

Boot up time to the login screen on Windows 7 64bit was 44 seconds on SATA and it has been slashed to more than half at 20 sec on SSD.
I paid about RM700 for this X25M as it is an OEM unit which come with one month warranty only. You can get it from our most popular tech website at http://lowyat.net .The retail pack would set you back to around RM1400 which is double the price.
I don't see any reason not to upgrade to SSD if you can afford it. Cut down on the budget for your new notebook and use the balance to get the SSD. As SSD does not have any mechanical parts, I do not have to worry about dropping my notebook or knocking it on a hard surface when it is still operational.
