It depends on if they allow all games to be fully installed or not. After putting a SSD in my PS3 and having them in my PC and laptop, I will never go back to HDD or disc streaming.

I thought SSDs in general did very little to game performance? For me, I don't bother with it because the games just take up too my space on my PC

It really depends on the game when it comes to PS3. In games that stream a lot it makes a world of difference. Most games will typicaly load a couple seconds faster, and the OS is silky smooth all the time. Some examples of games that it made a difference on are, Killzone 2, Madden 2011, and GTA4. With the orginal 120GB HDD on my slim I had a slight pause between check points on K2, after the SSD no more. On Madden it would always hang up for a second after selecting plays, now its smooth as butter. With GTA it would have pop in with the HDDD, with the SSD crisp textures at all times.

On PC, wow, does it ever make a difference. 15 - 20 sec boot times, and every game is nearly 0 load times. It feels like the old days of cartridge gaming when you have a PC and a SSD.
