SSDs are indeed much faster. After I put in even an old one in my laptop, boot times are now under 9 seconds.

But there's no shame in using HDDs - when you need large capacity there's no beating them on $/GB.

Looks like waiting until later year will pay off - SSDs are expected to come very close to current HDD prices:

Even now they're not too bad: HDDs average around $0.06/GB, and I've seen some SSDs on sale for as low as about $0.17/GB.

And where workflows can take advantage of it, hybrid SSD/HDD 3.5" drives are very competitively priced.
