Ahh ok, thanks I hadn't seen that page.

Do you know if the relatively low spec would bottleneck the speed of the SSD?

EDIT: just noticed it has no fans, does this mean lots of dust will come in?

I got a similar set up for a pc for my TV, i3 sandy bridge and I have an SSD on it. The reason I chosen an SSD is to boot windows and games quickly when using it. If you have the money and it satisfies your needs go for it.
