Hi, While I agree with Terje that the SSD HD does amazing things for your computer performance, I only have a spinning HD in my MBP and don’t experience the choppiness with VO. I don’t experience it with my 2009 iMac running OS Server either, which has a spinning HD as well. In both cases, my units were upgraded to Mavericks, not clean installed. I do primarily use Alex so voice choice may be a factor.
