Thunderbolt Boot Drive

Didn't fancy opening up my 2011 iMac to install an SSD so looked at alternatives after stumbling across a great video on YouTube linked below

After upgrading a Lacie Rugged drive with an SSD which is really simple(couple of screws) and cloning my boot drive via disk utility it works amazingly well Boot time down from 1min 20 to 30secs and the whole thing just feels generally quicker loading apps etc. For anyone who doesn't fancy the internal HDD swap I would definitely recommend this mod.
