Hy!
As the title says, is it worth to install mmorpg (LOTRO) on SSD to improve loading time?
It's installed on WD black 500GB, and loading times are usually 10-20sec when changing locations,
even more when starting it for first time after boot (90sec), with HDD light turned on all the time.

It doesn't seem like much time, but it takes about 10 min of 1 hour gameplay.
Don't want to experiment, because it takes over 18GB...
 
Solution
Yes your loading times will improve installing to an SSD (by how much depends on the SSD), also updates ect will install faster (not DL faster, thats down to connection speed). Ram is also a factor, Slow or not enough RAM will reduce performance in load times and general performance (8GB is a good amount to have)
