    He all there! Recently I broguth back to like my old M17XR2, Windows 10 is installed but the performance is not good enought, even having an I7 920XM.
    Just found a deal for 32-39 USD for this SSD disk:

    • Kingston 2.5" SATA III SSDNow V300 120GB Internal SSD Desktop/Notebook Upgrade Kit with adapters and USB enclosure
    Will it work? If not, which one is recommended.

    Kind of a deal, but just buy a cheaper 120GB ssd from Amazon (or 2 and run them in RAID0) as long as it uses a 2.5 inch Sata form factor
