64 bit won't make a big difference for VS.

>Samsung 250mb SSDs are about $170 now so mine arrives tomorrow.
>
>My laptop is an i7 and runs Win 7 64bit so seems like it will be worth the effort to upgrade the primary drive.
>
>Found an HD caddy to swap into the CD Rom bay, so will move the current primary - 500 mb to that as a second drive..
>
> Running multiple instances of VS2012, with SSMS etc is just getting tedious on my old desktop with 32bit. (and that's in 2012 and c# - vs2010 with a big VB app is painful. )
>
>Laptop has 6gb now but I will soon bump to 8 (which is the official max. y580s are said to handle 16gb nicely but not sure about the y560 yet, though I suspect the processor and 64bit os are more the issue )
>
>Anybody have experience of upgrading a laptop to SSD?
>
>I hear is it a very nice difference. They say it comes with software to mirror current HD to new one but if not I have Paragon suite.
>
>I'll report back tomorrow on results, or at least vent my frustration ( I hate hardware and all its evil works )
