[QUOTE="Marcusb, post: 213670, member: 11550"] It could work, but I don't think it would be as beneficial as you'd think. MP starting may be a small about faster, but I don't think there's enough accessing after MP starts that would give you a noticable benefit. With regards to the number of write operations that SSD can handle, this has improved quite a bit lately so wouldn't be much of an issue but the thing I would worry about is that sometimes USB mass storage devices don't start up straight away with windows. Once the OS loads, it can take a small amount of time before the drive is visible in Windows Explorer. You'd get all sorts of errors if windows tried to load MP before the drive was completely ready [/QUOTE]
