I recently stuck a Samsung 840 SSD into my old ThinkPad X60. It's hobbled a bit by the X60's ancient SATA 1 interface but still faster than a conventional HDD. Here I boot the machines, open up Firefox, learn that Iain Banks is terminally ill, close Firefox, open up Audacity - I should have opened something more demanding, hey ho - and then shut the machines down.
