Hi all,

A few months ago, I upgraded my X200 Tablet (a 7449 series) adding more
RAM, having now up to 4 Gb. To cope with the upgrade, I switched to a PAE
kernel as I was before on a 32 bit environment and didn't want to reinstall.

After some recent reading, I have decided to reinstall everything and
migrate to 64 bit. Given that I have to reinstall, I was thinking that
would be a good boost to the performance (and to the life of the computer)
switching to an SSD.

Any recommendations of brand/retailer (Europe), or tips to take into
account? Or I should just not change the disk and keep with it until I
change the PC completely (is it more money wise?)

Regards,
Sergi
