Many people relocate their home folder because of the size of the their home folders vs. the small size of the SSDs.

While I don't have a SSD yet, I cannot afford something over 300gig, but yet that's what I'll need if I expect to need if I buy a SSD and move everything onto it like a hard drive.

Instead, run your OS and apps on the SSD and ether move the entire home folder to another drive or the large portions, like (for me) the music, pictures and my Photoshop folders.

I have yet to take the plunge, but I'm now waiting for a great deal for a 120gb SSD
