    I just did this upgrade and have to say it is a huge improvement. So far all I have installed is Office and reboots and opening office is super fast.

    I was just coming to look and see if anyone else has done this and if they needed to do anything special. On the Envy15 lounge thread someone said I need to install the chipset and the Intel rapid storage driver. I have no clue where to find either. I went to Intel and did a auto detect and it found nothing. If anyone knows where I should go from here that would be great.

    It is a very good and effective upgrade.
