I'm using aOCZ Vertex 4 VTX4-25SAT3-128G 2.5" 128GB SATA III MLC

me. I also have a 500 GB drive for a storage location of my Documents
and Program Install Files.
Also using a i5 3570k processor 8 GB of Ram

Planning on a faster I5 CPU. That's a 4 core and since I am not crunching
huge bunches of numbers, it will be fast enough.
The supplier suggested another way to speed things up: use a solid state
drive since I don't need a large drive. At about $1 a gigabyte, it seems a
good a good choice.
Is anyone using an SSD? I am guessing the flash memory is not bothered by
the presence of high RF energy, but I am not sure...so I am asking.
