if it's a server specific SSD then judging by my tests here between 10-20 times quicker. If it is a PC SSD then I would guestimate 5-10. Beware when using Memo fields as when you update they you are actually writing the WHOLE of the memo data back into new areas so the "limited number" of writes available to an SSD will be quickly used up (See Christof's post earlier this week). However the modern SSD's have a vastly superion "lifetime" than the early ones so I don't think that will really matter. Just buy a GOOD one and don't simply base your choice on cost.
