Hello, I have an upgrade question about what could give me the max benefit. I have a 2010 Macbook Pro 15 2.53 GHz with a 500 GB 5400 rpm hard drive and 330m 256mb graphics, that I want to upgrade on the cheap. I need to maintain at least 500gbs, between the two options 1 would be cheaper but would be simpler but wanted to get some advice first before making a move. I am hoping this upgrade will give my computer an overall boost that will allow me to play TF2 in OSX on max res on my high-res screen.

Option 1: 750gb Seagate XT 32gb SSD
Option 2: 256gb Crucial M4 and use the CDROM drive slot for the for the original 500gb
