Hello , I got an old laptop (here is the link)
http://www.toshiba-greece.com/discontinued-products/satellite-c660d-1g6/
I just want to ask , will a SSD work fine with my laptop ? Or it isn't worth it ?
I want to replace the old 5.400 RPM HDD with a new one , that's why I am asking . I thought that a SSD would be a good idea but I don't know if it fits .
Thanks for your time ! Sorry for my bad English .

Performance will be about the same. 10 might actually run better on lower end hardware. Any difference would be tiny. And Microsoft is ending support for Windows 7 in 2020.

I had a very similar old Toshiba. An SSD will speed things up and make using it a better experience. That being said the APU is weak and it will continue to be slow in some situations. But an SSD will improve it.

Don't waste money on anything smaller than 120GB. 60GB?? will be slow and too small in the long run. A cheap 120GB Kingston is perfect.

Windows 10 vs Windows 7 is up to you. 10 is better in the long run.
