Just wanted to add my .02 to the whole SSD discussion. I've been running a pair of (albeit small) Corsair Force Series 3 60 gig SSD's in RAID 0 for almost 2 years now, and while the performance for boot up and program loading is great, using them for anything other than programs, apps, and windows is a waste. I haven't had any stability issues since I installed them and I've tried watching movies from them and from my spinners. There really is no notable improvement in the video quality or loading. I don't use a RAID array for my spinners, but the OS side functions are enough faster that my rig still loads anything from them faster than it did when I was running strictly spinners.
IMHO a 256gb SSD is about the right size for running windows and games from. However if you have a huge Steam library you might want to consider keeping it on a spinner or getting a bigger SSD.
