I added an SSD to my system this morning and moved SC to it. Load time for Crusader has changed from horrible to acceptable. Otherwise, I don't see any in-game improvement. Frame rate is still around 15 up to about 20 in really good moments. I suppose it was worth a couple hundred bucks not to have to wait quite so long to start playing. Is anyone getting more out of an SSD? Update: With the page file on the SSD, I'm getting frame rate consistently above 20 and sometimes a bit over 30. Definite improvement.
