Yes, both are using mechanical harddisks.

I also use utilities like Alfred, etc... I can see how a fast SSD makes your system smoother.

An SSD is my next desirable upgrade.. but a considerable expense seeing as I need at least 512GB (I dualboot OSX and Windows)

Check out the Seagate Momentus XT hybrid drive. I put one in my MacBook Pro and it's a screamer. Almost as fast as a standalone SSD.
