As long as you don't need that extra HD space for something (like dumping raw images in the field) then yeah, it'll be a total win. I did the same thing to my relatively new VAIO. Laptops these days are chained down by the spinners in them. an SSD really lets it fly like it was meant to.
Before you begin though, go to sony's website and DL every single driver for that model laptop and burn them all onto a CD. There could be like 30 installers all told. But then after you have installed a fresh windows 7 on the SSD in the laptop, you can then get back proper functionality for the card reader, wifi, bluetooth, trackpad, special function keys, proper battery management and on and on. (Assuming the laptop CAME with windows 7)
I have 100% original shipping functionality with a clean install of W7 doing that (minus certain sony blaotware apps I "forgot" to install) :)
