so the drive you have in it is working fine? To be honest if it is I wouldn't switch it out cause your not going to really notice that much of a difference and the SSD drives are getting better and cheaper everyday. If you can hold off and wait a while then do it.

I had a SSD for a short time. The read speeds are crazy fast, but writes are frustrating and make you want to rip it out. I returned it.
