Solid state hard drive question

[worldofneil]

I have 4 gigs at the moment and was thinking of going to 8 possible

4->8GB will likely give your entire computer a speed boost with pretty much everything. I don't know for sure if it'll help with this game (it seems to use about 1GB give or take) so if you had a lot of other things running it might not have that 1GB to use and would be using the pagefile and slower.
