    Hello,

    I have a question for you guys. Since tomorrow is Black Friday, I will probably be buying an Intel SSD 330 Series 180GB SATA 3, 6 GB/S for my MSI X460DX-006US. It is on sale for $99. I was just wondering if/how I can make it fit in my laptop? I will be using is as my primary drive as it will be replacing my HDD. Also, is the motherboard compatible with SATA 3 drives? For those of you who have already installed SSDs in their laptop, how big of a difference does it make?

    Thanks!
