It would be higher if I had an SSD

Oh yeah, you'll jump to a mid 7.x. And jump for joy

Well I went ahead and ordered a Crucial 256gb M4 SSD from Amazon along with a 2.5 to 3.5 adapter. I hope this will compliment my computer nicely :)

You are going to be very happy

Should I expect any hiccups during win7 install using my new SSD Crucial M4?

Make it a fresh install and disconnect all other drives during the install.
Clean Install Windows 7

And this if you want to only use OS and programs on the SSD.

User Folders - Change Default Location

That plus in bios make sure you are in AHCI mode.

Nothing wrong with that

Mine went smooth as silk, just read over/follow the tutorials already recommended to you. Only thing I could add is to check for a firmware update. You never know when those will come out. I honestly don't remember if I got one or not , I know I checked........... its a terrible thing getting old... But again,all machines are different but my drive score went to a 7.9. with the M4. Its up in here somewhere......(found it, post # 14 in this thread if you want to look)
