I mean, a (good) SSD is worth quite a lot, even on very old systems. I have an old 2008 MacBook laying around. It’s certainly not fast but with an SSD it’s totally useable, even on current macOS versions.

Oh for sure, I remember buying my first SSD and booting windows in under 10 seconds and being like whaaaat.

I am starting to think maybe I am a ram hog.
