Well, dd'n the disk image from the old drive to the SSD didn't work--would just Blue Screen after the Windows logo. So I did a fresh install of 7. I'm typing from it now, got Firefox installed at least. Still have a lot of stuff to rebuild tomorrow.

Yeah, the SSD is fast. But it's not so much faster than my old 15k drive that I'd call it night and day. Windows doesn't boot that much quicker. The only thing I really notice is launching programs. That's gone from a few seconds to nearly instant.

Don't know if I'd recommend this drive yet. Perhaps at half the price. So give it 18 more months.
