I have a 20GB SSD that i have installed in my laptop in the optical bay drive. I was wondering if i use the SSD purely for readyboost, will i notice enough of a performance boost to keep it for that job.
 
Since you already have 8GB RAM installed, I can't see the need for ReadyBoost and I wouldn't expect it to improve what should already be very decent performance.

Furthermore, I wouldn't want to lose my optical drive to make room for a hard drive or SSD - no way.
