    I have an MBP 15'' 2010 with i7, actually i can't upgrade to the last model (i want this to survive at least 1 year until i can upgrade, also i need the money for other more important things).

    I want to upgrade to an SSD Corsair F120 (Reading speed 285mb/sec and Writing 275mb/sec), do i will find an upgrade in speed? (i live in Mexico so you imagine here are a bit more expensive) Without TRIM i can have problems with the SSD in OSX? How much this will affect my battery? Any experiences?

    Im happy with my MBP, i can do everything i need without problems (Office, Internet/MSN/Facebook, Videos and SC2/WoW), but i want more speed so i want to test an SSD if they are very good as they say, this could improve my loads in SC2? (They take a bit to load)

    Thanks
