Hi all.
Decided to look into upgrading my hard drive to an ssd. My current machine is a 2009 macbook 17 with a 500gb 5400 hard drive.
My main reason for the upgrade is to improve lightroom performance. I am finding the speed on lightroom 5 to be annoyingly slow at times, especially when zooiming into 100%. Since i haven't usedn or installed an SSD i have a couple of questions.
Will installing an SSD improve lightroom performance.
Looking at the samsung 840's, will the PRO be much of an improvement over the EVO. SInce i am looking to keep this machine for another year or 2 i am happy to pay the extra if needed.
These are the 2 drives i am looking at on amazon:-
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Series-512GB-Solid-State/dp/B009LI7CYE
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00E3915Y4/
What extra do i need to transfer my data over from my current hd to the new hd, and any extra hardware / tools needed to install?
Cheers all
