OK, so I bought a Crucial MX100 256 SSD on Amazon, a couple days ago. This morning I used a buddies Apricorn disc and USB-SATA cable, to clone my Hitachi 750GB 5400RPM Ultrabook drive to the SSD.
Clone took 41 minutes using the USB3, I only had 230 some GB on my Hitachi.
Here are the old and new. A Malewarebytes scan and CrystalMark.
Hitachi 5400rpm scan
Crucial SSD, program found a couple PUP's and I had to look up the Scan time in the History. As you can see, took about 18 minutes off the scan time!!
Hitachi 5400 RPM
Crucial SSD.
All I can really say is, "WOW!!!"
Boot time is in seconds, as opposed to over a minute and a half, at least!! That's nearly an HOUR saved each month!!
That means I can go to the Gym one more time a month, or spend more time with my girlfriend ('s)
. (None of them are on TPU, to the best of my knowledge. Perhaps I will find out if any of them check me out here! 
)
Anyways, I am super happy about the upgrade, even though it is not the cutting edge, where the rest of my life is lived!
JK.
Color me Purple and Gold, that is how Happy I am, right now!!
