SSD upgrade and capacity

[FONT=times new roman]Hello everyone![/FONT]

[FONT=times new roman]I got a Toshiba satellite a300-1mm with win7-prof installed. The programs that I primarily use are the following: Microsoft office 2007, Matlab, skype, spotify, opera. I would like to replace my damaged HDD(250GB) with a lower capacity SSD. Would a 64GB-SSD be enough?[/FONT]

Ofcourse it will be,but if you start installing games..You will need more then 64GB.

Windows 7 = 16GB
Microsoft Office = 1GB
Matlab,Skype,Spotify,Opera = 1GB in total

[FONT=times new roman]Thank you Invidia! Could you recommend one?[/FONT]

Sure,
Now i’m a big Intel fan so i would recommend an Intel SSD,but i know that OCZ SSD drives have better performance and speed, 550MB/s writing and reading i think.
Here’s a link :

Its a great SSD hard disk and its really cheap for what you get.

Thank you for your help!

An SSD of 64 GB would only be useful to boot your system faster. You could install your OS and some applications you use often on the SSD and everything else on a mechanic hard drive.
