I just recently upgraded my X60 Tablet by replacing its hard drive (HDD) with a solid state drive (SSD). The difference is a drive based on a rotating storage platter and a drive based on memory chips with no moving parts.
The Kingston v300 SSDNow drive came with a USB drive enclosure, so the SSD could be plugged into the tablet via a USB port. I used a freeware program called Macrium to clone the HDD to the SSD. It took a while but it was otherwise uneventful.
Then it was just a matter of removing the HDD, detaching the rubber cushions and caddy, and fitting the cushions and caddy to the SSD. After slipping it back into its railed slot, the tablet booted up without missing a beat. The difference in speed was immediate. The Tablet ran at a much lower temperature too.
The improvement in responsiveness for Logos 6 was dramatic. Well worth the effort. For all those using Logos 6 on older hardware and finding the sluggish experience quite frustrating, I recommend the upgrade.
