Go for the round cables instead of ribbon cables inside. The cooling potential is better

SSD's don't just help with OS boot times. They also help with everything on the drives boot time. Programs like Windows Media Center with 4 TBs or so takes a long time to load up. With an SSD it takes about 5 seconds. Everything is significantly quicker, on that drive obviously which would be your program drive "windows drive".
If I had a nice video camera I would post up my Media Center PC with a SSD loading 200+ blurays in windows media center(covers, descriptions and all info) in about 6 seconds. Use to take nearly 30 seconds.
Not trying to pimp/sell SSDs just stating the facts. So if they sound like something you could use, get one. If not don't. SSD's are ideal for programs that use a lot of memory and have a lot of files. Slow loading programs, I only use windows media center as an example because mine has about 4 TBs to load with it.
