60GB SSD

I'm going to put a 60gb mushkin SSD in my 2nd PC that I have friends and family use when there over since the drive on it died. Im going to load Win 7 Ultimate and it has only 8gbs of RAM so I'm wondering should it be enough after programs and paging takes up some ?

You'll be pushing it, 60gb is the smallest I'd use for just a boot drive. Do you have an old HDD sitting around you could use as a data/secondary drive? Even a 250-320gb, or find one on craigslist or ebay.
The 60 SSD isn't going to last long as the only drive...

Yeah I could use a spare 320GB HDD I have in my main PC that really isnt getting used. Yeah I was thinking that its probably pretty close to being filled up fast. The 128gb I have in my system now is almost full after having just a little bit of things that I wanted on it. I really only wanted to put the OS on there and maybe 5-10 small programs, such as google chrome, spotify and skype.
