    Hi everyone, I have an old Fujitsu U1010, and I'd like to upgrade the original hard drive, a Toshiba MK4009GAL since it's become really slow.
    I've found two solid sate disks as possible options:
    1. KingSpec SSD 64G ZIF1.8" (KSD-ZF18.6-064MS), read/write rate: 109/59 MB/s
    2. RunCore Pro IV 1.8" ZIF PATA SSD (RCP-IV-Z1864-MC), read/write rate: 90/81 MB/s
    As the latter is much more expensive, I'm wondering if the difference of about 20 MB/s between these two is perceptible in everyday use, or maybe the Kingspec ssd is already much faster than the old hard disk, so that the extra-boost is pointless.
    Thanks for any suggestion,
    Alessandro
