[QUOTE="ScottinPollock, post: 483663, member: 40111"] SSD=Solid State Drive. This will reduce disk access times (in some respects) by a factor of 100. If your system is on one, you will see boot times and app launch times reduced by a factor 10. And they're pretty cheap now a days... check out the Kingston HyperX Savage for a good budget drive. In fact these drives are getting to the point where their performance actually exceeds the SATA 3 bus (which hopefully you have on your mother board). You can go even faster by getting SSD with a PCIE interface (see the Kingston Predator). We're talking R/W in excess of 1GB/sec, albeit at about twice the price currently. Scratch disk is physical drive space where memory overflow resides. It is by default your system volume, but PS lets you assign another volume if you wish. [/QUOTE]
