Mmmm don't know how much "no use". I've found that dropping an SSD into an older computer (eg older laptops) really breathes new life into them. You get a VERY noticeable performance boost moving from some old 5400RM mechanical drive to SSD... even if it's on the SATA2 bus instead of SATA3 (or PCIe)

I have a not so old netbooc (acer approx 4 years old - 2Gb ram) and the ssd did not change anything to the computer speed. The atom was obviously the limit
the ssd was then installed in my i5 tower and there it shines

My best half and I have two different models of the Asus EeePC. Except for the screen size and the hard drives they are pretty much the same. They both use the same Atom processor. Mine, with the SSD, always booted faster than hers with the mechanical drive. She replaced her mechanical drive with an SSD and saw a big difference. I also replaced the mechanical drive in my five year old Gateway dual core laptop. OMG! On bootup the POST takes longer than the actual operating system boot. Start a program and it's running.
