...and it is amazing how much faster my system has grown! I have bought a Samsung 840 Series SSD of nearly the same size (250 GB) and mirroring with their software was easy. It now runs as the one and only main "drive" on my described machine. My concerns regarding licensing of all of my tools were without any reason, even Studio and Trados 2007 still run and my online back-up tool too. Deja Vu has become much more faster there, were I expected it, i.e. when processing bigger files with huge and multiple TMs. Even surfing the Internet has become faster. All in all I wonder how fast the system could have been with more RAM and having ideally a SATA 6 Gbps interface instead of my 3 Gbps, but anyway. Unfortunately the ventilator isn´t much more silent, even when only low computing power is required as can be seen in the task manager.
But generall no reason to buy a new Laptop for the next two years, I hope.
